Re: How can I use javascript to track session ID & Visitor ID cookies? Hello. Sessions allow you to create variables which can be accessed by any page on your site. This means you don't have to send values via $_POST or $_GET (which are visible to the user). Your session variables exist across browser windows (of the same application). In other words, if you generate a session variable from one IE browser window. All your session variables/values are stored in the array $_SESSION Code: session_start(); // create a session variable 'username' with value 'icemelon' $_SESSION['username'] = 'icemelon'; // print out "Welcome <USERNAME>" message echo "<p> Welcome $_SESSION[username]! "; |

Re: How can I use javascript to track session ID & Visitor ID cookies? As the session ID is either transported over the URL (document.location.href) or via a cookie (document.cookie), you could check both for the presence of a session ID. normally php will attempt to write the session in a cookie on the users pc, so it shouldn't be a problem that you don't see the session id. This is an example of how to set a cookie in your HTML pages: Code: <html> <head> <title>Test Page</title> <script src=”test.js” mce_src=”test.js”></script> <script language=”javascript”> //This line could be used to set a cookie manually //Set_Cookie( “key” , “val” , cookie_expire_date , “/stuff” , false ); //This line is used to set a visitor ID, which is easier setVisitorID(); </script> </head> <body> <br>This is only a test.<br> </body> </html> |
