A cookie is a small file, that stores in the user computer, used to keep track of information, such as username or else, the site can retrieve when the user visits the website next time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setting up cookie using PHP<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

setcookie()<\/strong> method is used to set up the cookie in PHP. we should call setcookie() method top of the script, before adding any functionality in the script.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Syntax<\/strong>:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

name => Name of the cookie<\/p>\n\n\n\n

value => value of the cookie, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
