    I need to get the contents of a cookie, then output it as just text. Basically, I'm trying to use a cookie to take a javascript variable on one page and pass it to a getResources snippet call on another page by nesting two snippets. The cookie holds the resource id. Both the snippet and how it's used are below. Can this even be done this way?

    Snippert
    <?php
return $_COOKIE["mobilepage"];


    [[getResources? &includeContent=`1` &resources=`[[mobileCookie]]` &tpl=`content`]]




    Thanks!!! [ed. note: hephaestoskin last edited this post 15 years, 1 month ago.]

      Why don't you use $_POST or $_GET instead?

      Also, getResources and mobileCookie will need to be uncached or it will only work the first time wink

        Um, I have no clue what I'm doing, seriously, this is all copy and paste for me at the moment. All I know is basic programming structure and principal.

          well, then let us know, what's your goal with this code?
