Re: [PHP] How to use multiple cookie statements
Can you use my above values to show me what you are talking about?

I'll be even lazier...
setcookie('foo[bar]', 'is ok');
setcookie('foo[qaz]', 'is better');
// after cookie is set.
$myFoo = $_COOKIE['foo'];
print_r($myFoo);

First, let me assure you that this is not one of those shady pyramid schemes
you've been hearing about. No, sir. Our model is the trapezoid!

A few options: use multiple cookies, e.g. setcookie('cookie_a'),
setcookie('cookie_b'), etc. Jordi's suggestion is also good, though I
would suggest using serialize() to make a single string out of your
values, like this: serialize(array('name1' => 'value', 'name2' =>
'value'). Or, use PHP's built-in session support. The cookie stores a
unique ID, whie the actual values are stored on the server.

you could try this:
setcookie ('values', serialize($_POST), time()+86400);
then when you want to retrieve it use
$values = unserialize($_COOKIE['values']);

I have to use cookies, since I am taking a class and it dictates that we use
cookies, but I can't email my instructor since she never responds. So how
do I use a cookie to record multiple values? Help would be appreciative.a
As the standard says, 1 cookie = 1 value, no way to have more than one
value in a cookie.
But you can think about some workarounds, a quick example just to give
you an idea:
$cookie = implode(':', $array)
Here you will have all values from the array in the cookie, and using :
as a separator.
To reverse the values: $values = explode(':', $cookie) and here you will
have all values in the array $values, starting with index 0.
Of course, in this way you can only set values, not the array keys. Look
in the manual for implode() and explode() and see if is usefull for you.
Regards,
Jordi.
