Hello,

I set a cookie using PHP and now i want to retrieve it by Javascript, is it possible?

I tried:
u=getCookie("lang");
alert(u);

But it gives javascript error (Object expected)

if its not possible, then how can i set one with Javascript but not on any event, just on the fly after executing php file or somethin!

Thanks

Thanks i managed to do it!

function getCookie(c_name)
{
if (document.cookie.length>0)
{
c_start=document.cookie.indexOf(c_name + "=")
if (c_start!=-1)
{
c_start=c_start + c_name.length+1
c_end=document.cookie.indexOf(";",c_start)
if (c_end==-1) c_end=document.cookie.length
return unescape(document.cookie.substring(c_start,c_end))
}
}
return ""
}

My_Cookie = getCookie(My_Cookie_Vars);

Hope this helps...
