Retrieving data from a cookie
Hello.
I have a problem with using a cookie in Flash and I need some help. I don't know too much about cookies so I am looking forward to your help.
What I need is to retrieve the username from a cookie into Flash. I am using LoadVars to communicate with a PHP file that will echo the username.
The problem is with the PHP file that should output the username from the cookie.
Here is the simple PHP code that I have tried:
PHP Code:
$user = $_SESSION['username'];
echo "user=".$user;
I have also tried the following:
PHP Code:
$user = $_COOKIE['username'];
echo "user=".$user;
Are any of these correct ? Is there anything else that I need to do ? I am sure that it is something rather simple in the end.
Again, what the PHP code needs to do is retrieve the username with the id of "username" from a cookie.
Thank you.
