Code:

<?php
if (isset($_COOKIE['Yoga_name'])) {
echo $_COOKIE['Yoga_name'] . ', Welcome to Free Online Yoga Videos';
exit;
}

if (isset($_POST['Yoga_name']) && strlen($_POST['Yoga_name']) > 3) {
setcookie('Yoga_name',$_POST['Yoga_name'], time() + 7200);
echo 'Cookie Set. Close the browser. Revisit this page, I will remember your name';
} else {
 echo '
        What is your name ?
        <form method="post" action="">
        <input type="text" name="Yoga_name">
        <button type="submit" name="submit">Enter Web Site</button>
        </form>
    ';
}

Can somebody explain this portion of the script ?

Code:

setcookie('phpExpertName', $_POST['phpExpertName'], time()+3600);

Why phpExpertName and $_POST['phpExpertName'] mentioned together ?

I do understand that it is the syntax of cookie. Hope I am right.

http://php.flashwebhost.com/vineesh/...set_cookie.php

PHP Code:


<?
if(isset($_COOKIE['userName'])) {
echo '<h2 style="color:red">Hi ' . $_COOKIE[userName] . '!, welcome back.</h2>';
exit;
}


if(isset($_POST['userName']) && strlen($_POST['userName']) > 3) {
setcookie('userName', $_POST['userName'], time() + 3600);
echo '<h3 style="color:red">You may close the browser and re-login, I will remember your Name. </h3>';
} else {

echo '
<html>
<body style="background-color:#D9D9D9">
<form method="POST" action="">
<input type="text" name="userName">
<button type="submit">Click here</button>

</body>
</html>

';
}

That is how cookie is set. First phpExpertName is name of the cookie. $_POST['phpExpertName'] is the data PHP get when user submit HTML form page using POST method.
