[PHP] Setting Cookies

Ok, I am having problems setting cookies in php. I have got a code that when accepted (by typing yes and clicking agree) should set a cookie, and each time that person visits the website it checks to see if they have that cookie, and if they do then they will not be asked to accept it again, but if they haven't accepted it before they will not be aloud to enter the website and have a message popup saying that they have to agreee.

So far i have:

The agreement page - Habbling Terms of Service

Here is the code in the agreement page for setting cookies (probably wrong):

PHP Code:

---

<br /><br /><font color="orange">Type <i>Yes</i> to agree with the rules above.<br />
Cookies must be enabled!!</font> <br /><form method="post" action="http://Habbling.net/smf">  <input name="agree" size="20" /><br />
  <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="I Agree" />
  <input type="submit" name="Cancel" value="Cancel" /> 


---

And here is what i added to the website i want to check if the person has the cookie allready:

PHP Code:

---

<?php
if(!isset($_COOKIE['hasAccepted']))
{
die("Please return and accept the terms and condtions");
}
?>
<?php

---

Can somebody please indicate to me why it is messed up?

Please explain what is "messed up".

Also, I guess it's messed up, because you aren't setting any cookies. :eh:

Please explain where do you set the cookie as i don't see it, that's the first part, second even if the cookie is set are you sure that's a long term one, no just for one session ? As for is the cookie set on same page or another ?

Ok, i got my agreement page. I want an agree and disagree button at the bottom, when the person clicks agree i want it to set a cookie called habblingcookie, if you click disagree it takes them to http://habbling.net/goodbye/.
On the habbling.net/smf index i want a code that checks for the "habblingcookie" and if it is there i dont want it to ask them to agree again. but if they dont have the cookie i want it to tell them to agree to it. if that makes sense?

ok for the agree button page:

PHP Code:

---

if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
  if(isset($_POST['agree']) && strtolower($_POST['agree']) == 'agree') {
     /* or whatever else you type in that text input */
     $expire = mktime(0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2038) // expires at 1st January 2038
     setCookie('varname','varvalue',$expire);
  }
} else {
   die('fuck ya');
}

Now for the cancel button you may use simple javascript

Code:

---

<input type="submit" name="cancel" value="I disagree" onClick="javascript:window.location('http://habbling.net/goodbye')" />

---

And that's pretty much it.

Thanks alot, but don't i need a cookie checker on the board index? to check if the person has the cookie allready?

yes you do but you did already manage how to do it ;-).

Also i suggest changing the "I disagree" button to reset button not submit, cause i'm not sure what has higher priority onClick or standart submit, so the form might get submitted anyway,

Code:

---

<input type="reset" name="cancel" value="I disagree" onClick="javascript:window.location('http://habbling.net/goodbye')" />

Confused me a bit there, but thankyou so much for the help. Can you accept my msn request please?
