Here is one of my final objectives at PHP introductory course ot O'Reilly. The strange thing that setting a cookie in that program les13uadownload.php doesn't work. I don't have a clue - sometimes in other programs when I run them they set cookies and sometimes not. To see the full functionality of this "program" I had to set cookie sevendays in another program. Please check where is my bug. Thanks in advance, Grega from Slovenia <?php if (!empty($_GET['delete_cookie'])) { setcookie("sevendays", "", time()-3600); //delete the cookie to allow to download the file more than 1x in 7days as another user } if (isset($_POST['check'])AND(isset($_POST['email']))AND(empty($_COOKIE["sevendays"]))) {#user clicked form download button $email = $_POST['email']; setcookie("sevendays", "email", time()+60*60*24*7); $filepath = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/.php_files/acme_brochure.pdf"; if (file_exists($filepath)) { header("Content-Type: application/force-download"); header("Content-Disposition:filename=\"brochure.pdf\""); $fd = fopen($filepath,'rb'); fpassthru($fd); fclose($fd); } }#isset(check) ?> <script type="text/javascript"> function setcolor(backgcolor,color) { document.getElementById("file").style.color=color; document.getElementById("file").style.background=backgcolor; } function setStyle(x) { document.getElementById(x).style.background="yellow"; } function unSetStyle(x) { document.getElementById(x).style.background="white"; } function isFormValid (formToCheck) { retVal = true; if ( (formToCheck.email.value).search(/^[\w!#$%&\'*+\/=?^`{|}~.-]+@(?:[a-z\d][a-z\d-]*(?:\.[a-z\d][a-z\d-]*)?)+\.(?:[a-z][a-z\d-]+)$/i) == -1 ) { element = document.getElementById ("new1Label"); element.style.color = "red"; element.style.fontWeight = "bold"; retVal = false; retEmVal = false; } else { element = document.getElementById ("new1Label"); element.style.color = "black"; element.style.fontWeight = "normal"; retEmVal = true; } if (formToCheck.downloaded.value=='no') { ret7daysVal = true; }else { ret7daysVal = false; } if (!retEmVal) { alert ("Please enter a valid e-mail address!"); retVal = false; }else if (!ret7daysVal) { alert ("You can download the file only once in seven days!"); retVal = false; } return retVal; } </script> <?php require($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/template_top.inc"); $ua = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']."<br />"; if (preg_match("/Macintosh/",$ua)) { if (!preg_match("/Firefox/",$ua)) { echo "For Macintosh You need to use Firefox! <a href=\"http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/internet_utilities/mozillafirefox.html\">Download here ...</a>"; exit(); } } if (preg_match("/Windows/",$ua)) { if (!preg_match("/MSIE/",$ua)) { echo "For Windows You need to use Internet Explorer!"; exit(); } } $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; $ipCheck = substr($ip,0,3); if ($ipCheck == "202") {echo "I don't trust You."; exit();} ?> <?php if (!empty($_COOKIE["sevendays"])) echo "IN SEVEN ".$_COOKIE["sevendays"]."
