php - Why doesn't cookie work in CodeIgniter?

Question

I use this function to add cookie and it adds perfectly as I can see in browser options.

function login($username,$password){

    $cookieUsername = array(
        'name'   => 'user',
        'value'  => md5($username),
        'expire' => time()+1000,
        'path'   => '/',
        'secure' => TRUE
    );

    $cookiePassword = array(
        'name'   => 'pass',
        'value'  => $password,
        'expire' => time()+1000,
        'path'   => '/',
        'secure' => TRUE
    );

    $this->input->set_cookie($cookieUsername);
    $this->input->set_cookie($cookiePassword);

}

I am unable to get back the cookie from this function:

 echo $this->input->cookie('user');

Please help - how can I get cookie back from CodeIgniter?

Answer 1

Its problem with CI built in function which writes the cookie. What i changed is now i am setting cookie whith

setcookie($name,$value,$expire,$path); 

function and getting it back through

$this->input->cookie('user',TRUE); 

this is work damn fine!
