$_POST[] is for info passed from forms.
you want $_COOKIE[]

I believe the POSTs are coming from a form.

yes, here is both the form and php script

<form action="actions/access.php" method="POST">
Username:<br><input type="text" name="id"><br>
Password:<br><input type="password" name="pass"><br>
<input type="submit" name="login" value="Login">
</form>

PHP:

<?
ob_start();
include("../database/colors.db.php"); ?>
<?php
$user = 'user';   //The username you want
$pass = 'pass';    //The password you want
$iduser = $_POST['id'];
$idpass = $_POST['pass'];
if(($iduser == $user) && ($idpass == $pass))
{
setcookie('id',$user,time()+3600);
setcookie('pass',$pass,time()+3600);
echo ("<script>window.location = '../admin.php'</script>");
}
else
{
echo ("Wrong Password/Username!");
}
ob_end_flush();
?>

ok, then how are you displaying the cookies?

___________________

$_COOKIE is for cookies
$_POST is for forms
$_GET is for urls
$_SERVER is for super globals

etc etc..

use $_COOKIE

sorry, but im new at this. :confused:
my thought is: if the password & username is correct a cookie will be created with that info...

but how do you know the cookies are not being set?
do echo $_COOKIE['id']; and see what shows.

or you could just run an if statement with the isset function.
