After some careful consideration I have decided to convert from sessions to cookies. I am however having a bit of trouble just getting started. I have a password page that should accept only one password, set the cookie and move on to the next page. But instead it just sits there doing nothing or it just loops back to the password page again. Can some please have a look at my code to see where I have made my error?
Thanks,
Code I'm using to check if the cookie is there...
PHP Code:
<?php
ob_start();
if (!isset($_COOKIE["nccpass1"])){
header("location: password/password_cs.php");
}
?>
Code I'm using if the cookie is not there.....
PHP Code:
<?php
ob_start();
?>
