Nothing. You cannot have user name is this cookie. It is used for different purpose.

Hi Fernandes,

If you have FE users logged in, TYPO3 already stores the username in the
TypoScript Front End object.

Access it in any extension you are building like this:-

$TSFE->fe_user->user['username']

Access it in TypoScript setup like this:-

page.111 = TEXT
page.111.data = TSFE:fe_user|user|username

HTH,

Ben

Hi,

You don't create new cookies in TYPO3. Extensions (I'm guessing you are
writing an extension) can add their own data to the TYPO3 cookie using
the method shown at the bottom of this page -
http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/references/doc_core_tsre
f/4.1.0/view/14/1/

Hi, thks for your answer

you just can read it anywhere in your extension PHP.
It is written by the TYPO3 core.

example:
if ($TSFE->fe_user->user['username']=='Korvo') {
do_some_special_things_for_Korvo();
}

Fernandes

go to http://de3.php.net/docs.php
you may select a language you prefer.
then enter 'cookies' in the searchfield at top
you will find references to the php-function setcookie() and the global
array $_COOKIE

this will do if you need the values in your extension (server-side).

if you need the info in the browser (client-side) you have to access the
cookies by javascript. Writing is easy in the way:

function setCookie ( cookieName, cookieValue, cookieLifeTimeInSecs ) {
var now = new Date();
var cookieExpire = new Date(now.getTime() + cookieLifeTimeInSecs);
document.cookie = cookieName + "=" + cookieValue + ";"
+" expires=" + cookieExpire.toGMTString() + ";";
}

this will ADD the cookie. other cookies are NOT removed!

reading a cookie with javascript is more complicated, because you can't
access one cookievalue alone.
all cookies are stored in one single string, separated by ';' in the way:

'cookieName1=CookieValue1;cookieName2=CookieValue2;cookieName3=CookieValue3;'

you have to split the string like this:

cookieList = document.cookie.split(';');
for ( i = 0 ; i< cookieList.length ; i++ ) {
c = cookieList[i].split('=');
cookieArray[c[0]] = c[1];
}

now you have your cookie in cookieArray[cookieName]

I think you are asking wrong question. May be you should read this:
http://typo3bloke.net/post-details/archive/2007/december/20/asking_proper_questions/

Next tell what exactly you want to achieve and we will tell you how. Surely just setting a cookie is not your final goal?

The cookie just contains a reference to the corresponding fe_sessions
record.
