Cookies and sessions allow storing and retrieving data across multiple requests from the same client in web applications. Cookies are stored on the client side, while sessions are stored on the server side. The key functions for cookies include setcookie() to create cookies, and $_COOKIE to access cookie values, while the key functions for sessions include session_start() to initialize sessions, $_SESSION to access session variables, and session_destroy() to delete session data. Both cookies and sessions associate data with a unique ID, but sessions only last for the user's browsing session while cookies have a longer lifetime.
- Cookies store data in the browser to maintain state between requests, while sessions store data on the server. Sessions associate a cookie containing a unique ID with data stored server-side.
- PHP provides the $_SESSION superglobal array to access session data. session_start() must be called before accessing $_SESSION. Data can be stored and retrieved across requests.
- Websites use login/logout to control access by storing user data in the session on login and destroying the session on logout. The POST/redirect pattern avoids duplicate form submissions on refresh by redirecting after form submission.
Sessions allow a web server to identify clients between page requests. The server assigns each client a unique session ID stored in a cookie. This ID associates multiple requests from the same client as part of the same session. Sessions expire after a period of inactivity to prevent unauthorized access to a logged-in user's session by another user. PHP manages sessions through the session.auto_start and session.gc_maxlifetime settings in php.ini. Session functions like session_start(), session_unset(), and session_destroy() control session behavior.
The document discusses session management and cookies in PHP. It describes how HTTP is stateless and sessions are used to maintain state across multiple requests. Sessions can be implemented using cookies, hidden form fields, or URL rewriting. Cookies are exchanged by setting a cookie header in the response and the client sending it back in subsequent requests. The document also outlines various PHP session functions like session_start(), session_register(), and setcookie() for managing sessions and cookies.
This document discusses PHP sessions. It explains that sessions allow websites to track user information across multiple pages by storing variables on the server instead of passing them individually between pages. Sessions work by assigning each user a unique ID stored in a cookie, which is used to retrieve the corresponding session file on the server containing the user's session variables. The document also covers session expiry, destroying sessions, and retrieving session data.
This document discusses cookies and sessions in PHP. Cookies are used to maintain state between HTTP requests and can store a small amount of text data in the user's browser. Sessions serve the same purpose as cookies but store data on the server rather than in the browser. The document demonstrates how to create, access, and destroy both cookies and sessions in PHP code. It also compares the key differences between cookies and sessions, such as cookies persisting after the browser closes while sessions do not.
Session and cookies knowledge is very important for a web developer. In these slides we are going to explore basics of Sessions and Cookies in PHP. How to create and destroy a session. How to create and destroy a cookie. How sessions and cookies are stored.
This document discusses PHP include statements and code reuse. It provides examples of including PHP files using include and include statements. It also discusses how included files are treated as PHP code and executed.
Session and cookies allow storing and retrieving data on the client-side. Sessions use a session ID to track user data across page requests. Cookies are stored in the browser and can persist longer than a session. The document provides examples of using sessions to track a counter and login information. It also demonstrates setting, retrieving, and deleting cookies to store form data between submissions.

This document provides an overview of cookies and sessions. It defines cookies as small text files stored on a user's computer that contain information about a website visit. Sessions are a combination of a server-side cookie containing a unique session token and client-side cookie. The document discusses setting, retrieving, and deleting cookies using JavaScript, as well as the advantages of storing session data on the server rather than in client-side cookies.
The document provides an overview of useful PHP functions for including files, validating user input, and creating custom functions. It discusses the include() and require() functions for including external files. It also demonstrates how to validate user input using functions like strlen(), ereg(), and regular expressions. Finally, it shows how to create custom functions to encapsulate repeated blocks of code and handle errors gracefully.
To create an independent session for each user, a login form is needed to start a session when a user enters their credentials. The login credentials will be checked, and if valid, a session will be created and stored on the server tied to that specific user. Session variables can then be used to store user information and identify them across pages. Logging out will destroy the session data and end the user's session.
Cookies are small pieces of data stored in a user's browser that are sent back to the server with requests. They allow servers to remember stateful information about users, like items in a shopping cart. Sessions use a unique identifier to store server-side data associated with each user, like login details, allowing information to persist across multiple requests. They provide more security than cookies by storing data on the server rather than sending it back and forth with each request. This document explains how cookies and sessions work, when each is appropriate, and how to implement them in PHP.
Cookies and sessions allow servers to remember information about users across multiple web pages. Cookies are small files stored on a user's computer that identify users and can store data to be accessed on subsequent page requests. Sessions use cookies to identify users and store temporary data on the server side to be accessed across multiple pages in one application, such as usernames or preferences. Both cookies and sessions must be started before any page output to ensure headers are sent before the page body.
Sessions in PHP allow storing user information to be used across multiple pages. A session is started with the session_start() function and session variables are set using the $_SESSION global array. Session variables last until the browser is closed by default. Cookies are small pieces of information stored in the client browser that are used to recognize the user. Cookies are created and saved on the client side but sent to the server with each request, allowing the server to access them through the $_COOKIE superglobal array. The main difference is that sessions last until the browser closes while cookies persist for a set time period or until deleted.

This document provides an overview of cookie and session management in ASP.NET. It discusses the differences between cookies, which are stored on the client-side, and sessions, which are stored on the server-side. Cookies can only store string data and have size and security limitations, while sessions can store any data type and provide more security since data is stored on the server. The document also provides examples of using cookies and sessions in ASP.NET applications and configuring session timeout values and cookie properties.
Session in PHP allows for maintaining and accessing user data across multiple pages of a website. It stores data on the server side and associates it with a unique ID saved in a cookie on the client side. The $_SESSION superglobal array is used to store and retrieve session variables. Session_start() must be called before accessing session variables, and session_destroy() ends the current session and destroys all associated data. Sample code demonstrates registering a session on login and checking for a valid session on subsequent pages.
PHP provides predefined variables like $_GET, $_POST, and $_SESSION to access important information from the server and user requests. $_GET and $_POST are used to send data from one PHP page to another via GET and POST methods in HTTP. $_SESSION is used to store temporary user data across multiple pages during a user's session by starting the session with session_start(). Data can be stored in and retrieved from $_SESSION, and sessions can be destroyed or have data removed using unset() or by setting a timeout interval.
In the following slide I am going to demonstrate the difference between Cookies and Session and how to use each and why. Also, I am going to talk a bit about session hijacking

Lecture 11 - PHP - Part 5 - CookiesSessions.pptSreejithVP7
PHP uses sessions and cookies to introduce state into the stateless HTTP protocol. Sessions allow servers to remember stateful information about individual users from page request to page request, while cookies store small amounts of data on the client side. The setcookie() function and $_COOKIE superglobal array are used to create and access cookies, while sessions are managed through the $_SESSION superglobal array after starting a session with session_start(). Cookies and sessions both provide methods for persistence across multiple page loads or visits.
Cookies and sessions allow storing and retrieving data across multiple requests in PHP. Cookies are stored on the client side while sessions are stored on the server side. Cookies are created using the setcookie() function and retrieved using the $_COOKIE superglobal array. Sessions are created using the session_start() function and data is stored in the $_SESSION superglobal array. Both cookies and sessions can be deleted by unset() or by letting them expire.
This presentation talks about managing a session and cookies in web using PHP. Cookies are stored at client machine and sent back to the server after first consecutive requests.Session manages the user state on the web page for security purpose as well.
The document discusses server-side and client-side state management in PHP. It explains that PHP uses sessions for server-side state management, storing user information on the server, while cookies are used for client-side state management by storing data on the user's browser. The document provides details on how to use sessions and cookies in PHP, including how to start sessions, access session variables, update and destroy sessions, and how to create, update, and delete cookies.
Cookies and sessions allow servers to store and retrieve information about users across multiple page requests that would otherwise be stateless. Cookies store data in the user's browser, while sessions store data on the server. Cookies have limits on size and number, while sessions can store larger objects but expire when the browser closes. PHP provides functions like setcookie() and $_SESSION to easily manage cookies and sessions for maintaining state in web applications.
The document provides an introduction to using PHP sessions and cookies to maintain state across multiple requests. It discusses how cookies store small amounts of data on the client browser, while sessions allow storing data on the server. The document then provides steps to create a login system using sessions: 1) Check login credentials and create a session variable on successful login, 2) Display user profile details on the profile page by fetching the session variable, 3) Include a logout link that destroys the session to end the user session. Key differences between cookies and sessions are also summarized - cookies are stored on the client while sessions are stored on the server.
This document discusses session management in PHP. It explains that PHP sessions and cookies allow for persistence in HTTP, which is otherwise stateless. Sessions store user information on the server and allow sharing data across requests. The session ID associates a user's requests. Sessions are created via session_start() and values are stored in the $_SESSION superglobal array and retrieved the same way. Sessions can be destroyed via session_destroy() but are normally left to timeout. An example increments a session variable to count page accesses.
Cookies allow websites to remember information about users across browsing sessions. They are stored on the user's device and sent back to the server with subsequent requests. Sessions store user data on the server instead of the device, requiring a session ID cookie to associate the user with their data. Sessions provide more security and storage space compared to cookies alone. PHP supports cookies via setcookie() and sessions via the $_SESSION superglobal array after calling session_start().
Cookies are small files stored on a user's computer that identify the user each time they visit a website. PHP allows you to create and retrieve cookie values. The setcookie() function is used to create a cookie by specifying a name, value, and expiration time. Cookie values are stored in the $_COOKIE superglobal array and can be accessed to retrieve the value. Cookies can be deleted by setting an expiration time in the past. If browsers do not support cookies, other methods like forms can be used to pass data between pages.
This document discusses cookies and sessions in PHP. It explains that cookies are small files stored on a user's computer that are used to identify users as they browse websites. Sessions in PHP allow information to be stored and available to multiple pages during a user's website visit. The document provides examples of how to create, read, modify and delete both cookies and session variables in PHP code.
This document discusses cookies and sessions in web programming. It defines cookies as data stored on the user's computer that can track details about their visits. Cookies are commonly used to store login information so users don't have to re-enter credentials. The document explains how to create, retrieve, and delete cookies using PHP functions like setcookie(). Sessions are introduced as an alternative to cookies for storing user information on the server. The document outlines how to start a session, store session variables, and destroy a session in PHP.
1. Cookies are small text files stored on a user's computer that are used to remember information about the user, such as names or preferences. Cookies are added to requests sent to servers and allow servers to remember information to personalize responses.
2. HTML5 introduced new storage mechanisms like localStorage and sessionStorage that are more secure and allow more data storage than cookies. localStorage data has no expiration, while sessionStorage data is cleared when the browser closes.
3. Server-Sent Events (SSE) allow servers to send updates to browsers in real-time through continuous event streams. SSE can be used with browser storage mechanisms to control the updating pace in the browser.
This document discusses PHP includes and error handling. It provides information on the common PHP include functions like include(), include_once(), require(), and require_once(). It explains how includes work and some potential problems with includes like arbitrary local file includes triggered by malicious user input. The document also discusses PHP error types like informational errors, actionable errors, and fatal errors.
PHP sessions allow storing and retrieving user-specific information across multiple pages using a unique identifier. Sessions start with the session_start() function and variables are stored using the $_SESSION superglobal array. Common uses include tracking user logins, shopping carts, or page views. Sessions are temporary and deleted when the user closes their browser.
A cookie is a small file stored on a user's computer that is sent back to the server each time the same browser requests a page. PHP allows you to create and retrieve cookie values. Cookies are created using the setcookie() function before the <html> tag and accepts parameters like name, value, expiration. Cookie values can then be accessed as a variable or using the $_COOKIE array. Cookies can be deleted by either letting them expire or setting the value to an empty string using the same parameters as setcookie().
To upload files from a browser to a server using PHP, an HTML form allows users to select a file to upload. PHP code then moves the uploaded file to the specified target folder. Session variables store user information across pages, while cookies identify users by embedding a small file on their computer. Common PHP errors include notices, warnings, and fatal errors. Functions like error_log() send errors to logs and parse_ini_file() parses configuration files.
Session management is needed in web applications to maintain state across HTTP requests. Cookies and session variables are two techniques used to manage state. Session variables store data on the server tied to a unique session ID, while cookies store small amounts of data in the user's browser. Common uses of cookies and sessions include maintaining shopping carts across pages and personalizing websites based on user preferences. Cookies reduce server load by storing some data on the client side.
The document discusses file uploading in PHP. It explains how to create an HTML form to allow users to select a file to upload. It then shows the PHP code needed to handle the file upload by moving the uploaded file to a specified folder on the server. Session variables in PHP are also covered, including how to start a session, store session data in the $_SESSION variable, and destroy a session. Cookies are defined as small files stored on a user's computer that are sent back to the server on subsequent page requests to identify the user. The document demonstrates how to create, retrieve, and delete cookie values in PHP.

This document provides an introduction to data communications and computer networks. It defines key terms like telecommunications, data communications, and networks. It describes the basic components of a data communication system including data flow types. It also discusses different types of network topologies, categories of networks like LANs, WANs and MANs, protocols, and an overview of the Internet.
A local area network (LAN) connects devices within a small geographic area like a home or office building. Devices share network resources through a common communication line or wireless link. Basic LAN hardware includes hubs, switches, bridges, and routers to connect devices and manage traffic. Common wired media are twisted pair, coaxial, and fiber optic cables while wireless uses radio frequencies. An example home LAN uses a wireless router to share an internet connection among devices. A typical business LAN connects multiple floors or buildings with switches, routers, and fiber optic backbone.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

2. 2
Server Side Includes
It is possible to insert the content of
one PHP file into another PHP file with
the include or require statement.
The include and require statements are
identical, except upon failure:
require will produce a fatal error
(E_COMPILE_ERROR) and stop the script
include will only produce a warning
(E_WARNING) and the script will continue
4. How to create variables storing
values across php scripts’ calls?
Client-server connection is not permanent
=> Cannot be saved in program memory
There are many clients connecting
simultaneously
=> Cannot be saved in file (you cannot identify
clients as well sometimes)
.
.
.
5. Different mechanisms of the
same solution
Cookies
Cookies are a mechanism for storing data
in the remote browser and thus tracking or
identifying return users.
Sessions
Session support in PHP consists of a way
to preserve certain data across subsequent
accesses. This enables you to build more
customized applications and increase the
appeal of your web site.
6. What is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small file that the
server embeds on the user's
computer. Each time the same
computer requests for a page with
a browser, it will send the cookie
too. With PHP, you can both create
and retrieve cookie values.
7. How to Create a Cookie
The setcookie() function is used to create
cookies.
Note: The setcookie() function must
appear BEFORE the <html> tag.
setcookie(name, [value], [expire], [path],
[domain], [secure]);
This sets a cookie named "uname" - that expires after ten
hours.
<?php setcookie("uname", $name, time()+36000); ?>
<html> <body> …
8. How to Retrieve a Cookie
Value
To access a cookie you just refer to the cookie
name as a variable or use $_COOKIE array
Tip: Use the isset() function to find out if a
cookie has been set.
<html> <body>
<?php
if (isset($uname))
echo "Welcome " . $uname . "!<br />";
else
echo "You are not logged in!<br />"; ?>
</body> </html>
9. How to Delete a Cookie
It will expire
or
Cookies must be deleted with the same
parameters as they were set with. If the
value argument is an empty string (""),
and all other arguments match a
previous call to setcookie, then the
cookie with the specified name will be
deleted from the remote client.
10. What is a Session?
The session support allows you to
register arbitrary numbers of variables
to be preserved across requests.
A visitor accessing your web site is
assigned an unique id, the so-called
session id. This is either stored in a
cookie on the user side or is propagated
in the URL.
11. How to Create a Session
The session_start() function is
used to create cookies.
<?php
session_start();
?>
12. How do ‘Sessions’ work?
They are based on assigning each user
a unique number, or session id. Even
for extremely heavy use sites, this
number can for all practical purposes
can be regarded as unique.
e.g.
26fe536a534d3c7cde4297abb45e275
a
13. How do ‘Sessions’ work?
This session id is stored in a cookie, or
passed in the URL between pages
while the user browses.
The data to be stored (e.g. name, log-in
state, etc.) is stored securely server-
side in a PHP superglobal, and
referenced using the session id.
15. Starting/Resuming a Session
session_start();
PHP does all the work: It looks for a
valid session id in the $_COOKIE or
$_GET superglobals – if found it
initializes the data. If none found, a new
session id is created. Note that like
setcookie(), this function must be
called before any echoed output to
browser.
17. Storing Session Data
The $_SESSION superglobal array can
be used to store any session data.
e.g.
$_SESSION[‘name’] = $name;
$_SESSION[‘age’] = $age;
18. Reading Session Data
Data is simply read back from the
$_SESSION superglobal array.
e.g.
$name = $_SESSION[‘name’];
$age = $_SESSION[‘age’];
19. Session Propagation
Sessions need to pass the session id
between pages as a user browses to
track the session.
It can do this in two ways:
Cookie propagation
URL propagation
20. How to Retrieve a Session Value
Register Session variable
session_register('var1','var2',...); // will also create a session
PS:Session variable will be created on using even if you will not register it!
Use it
<?php
session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION['count']))
$_SESSION['count'] = 0;
else
$_SESSION['count']++;
?>
21. Delete a Session Value
session_unregister(´varname´);
How to destroy a session:
session_destroy()
22. Destroying a Session
Often not required, but if we want to destroy a session:
// clear all session variables
$_SESSION = array();
// delete the session cookie if there is one
if (isset($_COOKIE[session_name()])) {
setcookie(session_name(),'',time()-42000,'/');
}
// destroy session
session_destroy();
// avoid reusing the SID by redirecting
// back to the same page to regenerate session
header('Location: '.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
23. Session Expiry
By default, PHP sessions expire:
after a certain length of inactivity (default 1440s), the
PHP garbage collection processes deletes session
variables. Important as most sessions will not be
explicitly destroyed.
if propagated by cookies, default is to set a cookie
that is destroyed when the browser is closed.
If URL propagated, session id is lost as soon as
navigate away from the site.
24. Long-term Sessions
Although it is possible to customize
sessions so that they are maintained after
the browser is closed, for most practical
purposes PHP sessions can be regarded
as short-term.
Long-term session data (e.g. ‘remember
me’ boxes) is usually maintained by
explicitly setting and retrieving cookie
data.
25. Using Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of data that a
server sends to a browser for storage.
When a browser contacts a server, it
sends along any cookies for that server
under the variable $_COOKIES.
Similarly, a server can set one or more
cookies on the browser for retrieval at a
later time.
26. The first part of program session-cookies.php illustrates the typical use of cookies, with these lines:
$today = date('l, F j, Y');
$timestamp = date('g:i A');
if (strcmp($_COOKIE[LAST_VISIT], "") == 0) {
$lasttime = "";
} else {
$lasttime = $_COOKIE[LAST_VISIT];
}
$LAST_VISIT = $today . " at " . $timestamp;
// set last_visit cookie with date/time, with expiration for 2 full weeks
setcookie ("LAST_VISIT", $LAST_VISIT, time() + 3600*24*14);
if ($_COOKIE[VISIT_NUMBER] == 0) {
$visitcount = 0;
} else {
$visitcount = $_COOKIE[VISIT_NUMBER];
}
// set visit_number cookie with count, with expiration for 2 full weeks
setcookie ("VISIT_NUMBER",1 + $visitcount, time() + 3600*24*14);
27. additional notes:
Here are a few additional notes:
Cookies are sent with Web page headers,
so any setting of cookies must take place
BEFORE the DOCTYPE line in an
HTML/PHP script.
PHP function setcookie specifies a cookie
ID, a value, and a length of time for which
the cookie will be kept by the browser.
PHP variable $_COOKIE is an associative
array that maintains the list of cookies set
previously.
28. Check if your browser is usually set to accept
cookies.
If you use the Mozilla browser, this information can be found by
looking under "Preferences" in the "Edit" menu, and then going
to "Privacy & Security" and "Cookies".
If you use the Iceweasel browser, this information can be found
by looking under "Preferences" in the "Edit" menu, and then
going to the "Privacy" tab.
If you use Internet Explorer under Windows, this information can
be found by looking under select "Internet Options" from the
"Tools" menu, then look under "General" and "Settings" in the
"Temporary Internet Files" section.
If you use Internet Explorer on a Macintosh, this information can
be found by looking under "Preferences" under the "Explorer"
menu, and then looking under "Cookies" in the "Receiving Files"
section.
29. Session Variables
Effectively, session variables are cookies that
remain active only while the browser is actively
interacting with the server. When time elapses,
or when you close your browser, the session
variables disappear. (If cookies are not allowed
by a user, then information for sessions may be
placed in a query string at the end of a URL.)
The following lines from session-cookies-
2.php illustrate typically processing of session
variables.
30. The following lines illustrate typically processing of session variables.
// check if person has logged in previously
session_start();
$processingOK = "not yet";
$firstLogin = "no";
if (isset ($_SESSION['authorized'])) {
// user already logged in
$processingOK = $_SESSION['authorized'];
} else {
// user not logged in, so check password
$password = trim($_POST['password']);
if ($password == 'Test') {
// correct password given
$processingOK = 'ok';
$_SESSION['authorized'] = 'ok';
$firstLogin="yes";
} else {
// invalid password
}
}
31. Here are some notes regarding session variables:
A script uses session_start() to initialize and register any
session variables.
As with cookies, session variables are sent with Web
page headers, so any setting of session information
must take place before the DOCTYPE tag.
PHP variable $_SESSION is an associative array that
maintains the list of session variables set previously.
PHP function isset determines whether a
specific $_SESSION field has a designated value.
PHP function unset removes a session value that was
sent previously, and session_unset() removes all
session values.
32. <?php
// Note - cannot have any output before this
session_start();
if ( ! isset($_SESSION['value']) ) {
echo("<p>Session is empty</p>n");
$_SESSION['value'] = 0;
} else if ( $_SESSION['value'] < 3 ) {
$_SESSION['value'] = $_SESSION['value'] + 1;
echo("<p>Added one...</p>n");
} else {
session_destroy();
session_start();
echo("<p>Session Restarted</p>n");
}
?>
<p><a href="sessfun.php">Click Me!</a></p>
<p>Our Session ID is: <?php echo(session_id()); ?></p>
<pre>
<?php print_r($_SESSION); ?>
</pre>
http://www.php-intro.com/code/sessions/sessfun.php
34. POST / Redirect / GET
Once you do a POST, if you do
refresh, the browser will re-send the
POST data a second time
The user gets a popup that tries to
explain what is about to happen
38. Login / Logout
Having a session is not the same as being
logged in.
Generally you have a session the instant you
connect to a web site
The Session ID cookie is set when the first
page is delivered
Login puts user information in the session
(stored in the server)
Logout removes user information from the
session
40. POST-Redirect-GET-Flash
POST detects error in
input data and puts a
message into
$_SESSION and
redirects
GET sees the
message in the
session, displays it
and then deletes it
Flash = "Seen once"
46. Exercise
Write a program called Web
page session-cookies.php that tries to
save a cookie to keep track of whether
or not you have visited this page
previously.
