Cookie Storing
I have this script so far:
<?
session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION['track'])) {
$_SESSION['track'] = 0;
} else {
$_SESSION['track']++;
}
?>
Which sets a cookie. I can also check if the cookie exists when the user goes to another page.
How do you store information in the cookie? For example if I want to store a number like 1200, and then get that information from the cookie again when they go to another page?

Storing 2 Values In 1 Cookie
I am writing some forum software, and I would like to add the feature so that people can have the option for the forum to remember their username and password. Can I store both the username and password in one cookie, or do I have to do it with two cookies? I thought that I could separate the username and password with a pipe symbol then store them in a cookie, and then when I retrieve the cookie, I could spilt the data at the cookie forming an array or something like that, I'm not too familiar with this stuff.

Storing Array In A Cookie Problem
I'm trying to store an array in a cookie so that a site visitor could set a different number of items per page for different categories: PHP Code: if (isset($_POST['pglimit'])) { Â Â Â Â if (isset($_COOKIE['pglimit'])) { Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â $pglimit[$category] = $_POST['pglimit']; Â Â Â Â } else { Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â $pglimit = array($category=> $_POST['pglimit']); Â Â Â Â } setcookie("pglimit", serialize($pglimit)); header("Location: " . $base_url); exit; } elseif ((isset($_COOKIE['pglimit'])) && (!isset($_POST['pglimit']))) ........

How To Write A Cookie To The Users Computer And Then Check To See If That Cookie Excists Before?
I've used sessions quite a bit, but I have never used cookies that are on the users computer. In this project I am working on I need to have the user enter username and password and then if it's correct set a cookie on their computer that allows them to open new browser windows without having to re- enter the password. This isn't possible with sessions because when the browser is closed then the session ends. Bascially, I just need to know how to write a cookie to the users computer and then check to see if that cookie excists before allowing access to certain pages.

Cookies Set One Time, I Delete Cookie, Cookie Is Never Set Again!
I am having this problem: My PHP script will set a cookie, it's there in my /Cookies folder. I delete the cookie (I have to for testing purposes, the PHP script I run behaves according to this cookie existing or not) and run the script again. Everything runs fine, but the cookie is never set again. Does anyone know why this happens? I am using Win2000 Professional with IE 6. Cookies are being set with PHP and Javascript.

Storing XML
I'm designing a website that will use XML to store all the content of my web pages. I will use a PHP script to parse the XML. Should I store the XML in a MySQL database or should I simply store the XML in *.xml files on my server? Which would would yield better performance? And would using one PHP script to parse all the pages be too much on one script (I'll have about 600 pages)?

Storing Data
Say I have a number: number = 34043923, this represents a wordID, so the word belonging to this wordID is say: forum (whatever). This can be stored in 4 bytes (so i am told ) BUT when I save it with fopen/fwrite it takes up 8 bytes (1 for every character) and the file can be read (when opening the file it just reads 34043923). How can I store this data so it takes up only 4 bytes AND how can I do this storing it in a textfield of a mysql db?

Storing Classes
I have a script which calls up a class stored in a file FormatText.class . I don't want my .class files to be accessible if anyone types the URL of the class - I only want my class file accessible by a PHP script called by my server. I use require_once "FormatText.class";o get the class. Where do people typically place the class files when designing software? Shoud I put it in the root folder? I also have a text file I often call that contains sensitive database information. I placed that file in the main directory, (one up from the www directory). How safe is that file? Is that standard practice?

Storing Array In A Row
I run a site with staff-submitted reviews, and most of them are written by one author. However, we also do "multiple" reviews. Up until now I just had a userid for a 'Multiple' account and submitted them under that, but this makes it harder to print lists of all the reviews by one person, so ideally I wanna make a multiple select form so we can just select all the contributors and have the values saved in the database - in one row (something like "56,34,21" etc). I've coded a multiple select form with all the authors of articles for my site on, and I want to store the results of this in one row so I can grab them as an array later - how can I go about doing this? I just googled and came across using <select name="author[]"> in my HTML, and then using serialize() to process it, but it fails. When I run the following code, the value for 'multiplearray' remains at 0 whether I select single OR multiple values on the form: <?php $dbhost = ### $dbuser = ### $dbpass = ### $dbname = ### $conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die ('Error connecting to mysql'); mysql_select_db($dbname); if(isset($_POST['save'])) { $author = serialize($_POST['author']); $query = "INSERT INTO review_test (multiplearray) VALUES ('$author')"; mysql_query($query) or die('Error ,query failed'); echo "Query successful!"; } echo "<form name='test' method='post' action=''>"; $query2 = "SELECT Staff_id, displayname FROM users WHERE userlevel !=0 ORDER BY username"; $result2 = mysql_query($query2) or die('Error : ' . mysql_error()); echo "<select name='author[]' id='author[]' multiple='multiple' size=ཆ'>"; while($row2 = mysql_fetch_array($result2, MYSQL_NUM)) { list($Staff_id, $displayname) = $row2; echo "<option value='$Staff_id'>$displayname</option>"; } echo "</select>"; echo "<br><br><input name='save' type='submit' id='save' value='Post Review'>"; echo "</form>"; ?>

Storing Arrays
Im trying to figure out a good way to store an array in mysql, and be able to retrieve the entire array, back into an array. Im building a form that allows authors to submit "Tags" for their books, so people can search on these "Tags" and it will search the Authors table in mysql for matching tags, so that readers can simply enter a tag, and find books that match the tags. For example: Thru a form, an author might type php,mysql,development - Those would then by submitted by a form, So what function could i use to put those into an array? Then how would i store the array in mysql and be able to retrieve it back into an array, for example /author.php?author=mike If mike's tags were php,mysql,development id like to list that on the php page next to his book. So what im trying to do is, 1. Get comma seperated values and put them into an array. 2. Store the array in mysql, and be able to retrieve it back into an array(i know database functions, just not sure what datatype i should use for the column to store these in).

Also, the info in this array is by no means specific to each user, its the same for all of them. Is there any alternatives to this? Some way of storing an array which would be accessible by multiple pages.

Storing A Hierarchy In An Array
I am having some troubles. What I am doing here is dealing with an employee hierarchy that is stored in an array. It looks like this: $employees = array( "user_id" => array( "name", "title", "reports to user id", "start date in the format: mm/dd/yyyy" ) ); How can I display this hierarchy in simple nested <li> tags in the most efficient way possible? I realize that the way this is setup, the hierarchy is essentially a tree. But I am at a loss as to how to pull this data out, sort it, and display it wit nested <li> tags. I am thinking that this is more of a computer science problem.... What I mean by displayed as a hierarchy, is that the nested <li> tags will indent themselves to look like that. Like this: - CEO -- Manager --- Manager's secretary --- Minion -- Manager That sort of thing. I am just lost as to how I can analyze the structure of the array and turn it in to output like that.

Storing Sessions In Mysql
I'm working on a shopping cart which uses sessions and I'm battling with a couple of decisions ... 1) Allow users who don't use cookies Currently I'm passing the SID's in the url for those not allowing cookies. Is there anything I should be considering when displaying SID's in the browsers address? Should I just disallow those not allowing cookies? 2) Store the session ID's and cart contents in mysql for non registered visitors. I can see that there might be a reason to obtain statistics on visitors who fill a cart and don't register, but I can see a lot of redundant data being left in the db. Currently I'm storing everything in an array and then once the visitor has created an account I'm going to input the contents of the array into the db. Does anyone have any personal preference over these design considerations which I may have overlooked?

I've been trying to store an form inputted date into a database and then retreive it, but it doesn't come out the same when I pull it out of the database.
