Hi Jeff, One thing you can try is setting the cookie twice.. with and without the secure setting. Your code will pick up the nonsecure in the nonsecure area and function fine.. just as your code will pick up the secure in the secure area and function fine. Should work.

I loose the values from http -> https. I can think of ways to fix this, but i didn't know if there was a way in the basic setting/handling of cookies, and the manual shows you how to but it says that a 1 for a secure argument will only be submitted over a secure connection. can it stay valid over both? Am i missing somthing obvious? I have tried to explicitly set the secure arg to both 0 and 1 with similar results. I am running inserts that have the cookie value in it and when the user moves from http to https the value changes, which it should not. a little mysql related, a little not. thanks all. jeff -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
