Hi Prickett,

That's a good question. I've been considering using a different control for setting/detecting cookies and session variables because of this limitation.

However, until I make that change in the future, you can set and detect cookies using the PHP boxes.

To set a cookie, use the PHP box in the SUCCEED or FAIL action:

$cookiename = "MT-1"; // customise!
$tenyears = 60*60*24*365*10;
setcookie( $cookiename, 1, time()+$tenyears, '/' );

To detect it, use this in the PHP box on the LEFT:

$cookiename = "MT-1"; // customise!
$cookie = JRequest::getInt($cookiename, 0, 'cookie');
if ($cookie > 0) return true;

Cheers,
Stephen
