Cookies, Cookies - Got the Setting but Now the Getting

[Pierre Sahores]

Hi Gregory,

try : 

get $_SERVER[HTTP_COOKIE] 

without quoting HTTP_COOKIE

Works fine there.

HTH,

Pierre

Say a user clicks a hyperlink named My Page, which is supposed to take them to a personal account page, populated with personal settings.  I figure that it is easiest to embed a POST form action in every page, even if there are no form objects on some pages, so that no matter what page a user is on or what hyperlink they click, their cookies can be retrieved by a script in the destination page, checked against a database, and the appropriate content shown.  Does that sound kind of in the ballpark?  It probably makes more sense to attach the POST action directly specific hyperlinks, such as My Page, but I'm not sure how to do that.
