How can I use PHPNuke Cookies

Posted: Mon Aug 20, 2007 7:53 pm

Greetings All,
I have some pages outside my main domain that I would like to use Nukes cookies to gain access.

I have included these pages on my main site using I-Frames. Can I use Nukes cookies to deciede who gets access to pages themselves (The pages without the IFrame)?

Are they a member?
Are they logged in?

I know nothing about cookies but before I spend a ton of time educating myself....is it possible to do this?

Dawg, not sure you can. Cookies are supposed to be domain specific and you are not supposed to be able to read another domain's cookies. So, you might have to write code to integrate the two.

There is no way to intergrate these pages.

There is some way of doing this (Protecting my offsite content) I just have to figure out how.

Could I read the incoming header and use that info to decide who gets access??

Dawg, I don't want to get lost on the semantics of the term "integrate". I was using that rather loosely. The important point I was making is that code would have to be written to accomplish this.

Can you please tell me more about just what control you have over this "offsite content" . I.e., what is serving up the pages and are you in control of the code / site that is doing this? Is it strictly HTML files being pulled in, or is it dynamically driven, such as by PHP?
