<?php
$rs = "http://192.168.2.105/setCookie.php";
$header = array("Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5",
"Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5",
"Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7",
"Keep-Alive: 300",
"Connection: keep-alive");

$uri = $rs;

$cobj = curl_init($uri);

curl_setopt($cobj,CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,$header);
curl_setopt($cobj,CURLOPT_USERAGENT,"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404 Firefox/2.0.0.14");

CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION [uk.php.net], otherwise you dont follow any Location headers returned.

i add this line to my code

curl_setopt($cobj,CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,true);

but it still not diplay cookie

any other issues

Hummmmmm....

Try adding CURLOPT_HEADER, true to your options. Then you should be able to see the header as well. That may throw some light on the problem.

[samdyk]

yes after i add this line

curl_setopt($cobj,CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,true);

when i acces i see the http header and also in http header Set-Cookie there is value name=realwat but on the page that i view through $_COOKIE['name']; there still no result.

here is the http header
