How to add Cookie to a HTTP request

Example 42-1. Adding a cookie to the request

In this example a cookie named version is added to the HTTP request. The value of this cookie is the version string of the PHP interpreter that is running the instance of HTTP_Request.

require_once "HTTP/Request.php";

$req =& new HTTP_Request("http://example.com/");
$req->addCookie("version", phpversion());

$response = $req->sendRequest();

if (PEAR::isError($response)) {
    echo $response->getMessage();
} else {
    echo $req->getResponseBody();
}

Example 42-2. Reading cookies from a HTTP response

Reading cookies that come with a HTTP response is shown in this following example.

require_once "HTTP/Request.php";

$req =& new HTTP_Request("http://example.com/");

$response = $req->sendRequest();

if (PEAR::isError($response)) {
    echo $response->getMessage();
} else {
    print_r($req->getResponseCookies());
}
