The syntax for accessing items in multi-dimensional arrays is:

  $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['font']['type']

$_COOKIE

THe book is out of date. RTFM for the latest info, also read the 
changelog/history to see what has changed since the version of PHP mentioned 
in your book was released.

Ok I fixed this by adding this line to the top of my script.

$font=$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['font'];
Then everything worked great.
I tried to access them like this
$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[font['type']] but this would not work.

Is my syntax wrong are must you always set the http_cookie to a variable
if it's an array?

This book does not mention HTTP_COOKIE_VARS at all. 
Nor did it mention $_POST or $_GET.

Am I doing something wrong with my script do I need to change something?

Is there a new way to do $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS like there is for POST and
GET?

Use isset():

if (isset($_POST['type_sel'])) etc...

Please read the manual at
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string
.parsing for *why* this doesn't work, but short answer is:


  if ( $_POST['type_sel'] ) echo "face={$_POST['type_sel']}";
  if ( $_POST['size_sel'] ) echo "size={$_POST['size_sel']}";

Also when I first run this at the top I get this error...

Notice: Undefined index: typeset in
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\testing\cookies.php on line 4
Notice: Undefined index: size_sel in

I assume its because the var have not been filled but I still need the

I am working through the beginning php 4 book by wrox and I can not get
the example to work. It is reading and passing the form data but the
cookies is not being written or read here is my code.

Also why can I not place these variables in line with the echo
statement. If I do it doesn't work. I thought I could just echo
"face=$_POST['type_sel'] " <- but it does not work.

if ( $_POST['type_sel'] ) echo "face=" . $_POST['type_sel'] . " "; if (
$_POST['size_sel'] ) echo "size=" . $_POST['size_sel'] . " ";
