HTTP协议是一种无状态协议，这意味着你对网站的每一个请求都是独立的，而且因此无法通过它自身保存数据。但这种简单性也是它在互联网早期就广泛传播的原因之一。

不过，它仍然有一种方法能让你用cookies的形式来保存请求之间的信息。这种方法使你能够更有效率的进行会话管理和维持数据。

有两种处理cookies的方式—服务端(php,asp等)和客户端(javascript).在这个教程中，我们将学习到以php和javascript这两种方式如何去创建cookies。

Cookies and php

setting cookies
在php中创建cookie你需要用到setcookie这个方法。它需要些参数(除了第一个参数是必需的，其它参数都是可选的)

复制代码代码如下:

setcookie(
    'pageVisits', //cookie名字，必需的
     $visited,     //cookie的值
     time()+7*24*60*60, //过期时间,设置为一个星期
     '/',               //cookie可用的文件路径
     'demo.tutorialzine.com' //cookie绑定的域名
)

如果过期时间设置为0(默认设置也是0)，那么当浏览器重启时cookie将会丢失。
参数'/'表示你域名下所有文件路径cookie都可以用(当然你也可以为它设置单一的文件路径,例：'/admin/')。

你还可以传给个这个函数别两个额外的参数，这里没有给出。它们被规定为boolean类型的。
第一个参数表示cookie仅在一个安全的HTTPS连接才运转,而第二个参数表示不能使用javascript操作cookie。

对大多数人来说，你只需要第四个参数，剩下的就忽略了。

reading cookies
用php读取cookie就简单多了。所有的传给脚本的cookies都在$_COOKIE这个超级全局数组里。
在我们的例子里，可以用下面的代码来读取cookies:

复制代码代码如下:

$visits = (int)$_COOKIE['pageVisits']+1;
echo "You visited this site: ".$visits." times";

值得注意的地方是,当下一个页面加载好时，也可以用$_COOKIE来取得你用setcookie方法设置的cookies,
你应该意识到了什么。

deleting cookies
为了删除cookies，仅仅需要用setcookie函数为cookies设置一个已经过去时间做为过期就行了。

复制代码代码如下:

setcookie(
     'pageVisits',
      $visited,
      time()-7*24*60*60,  //设置为前一个星期，cookie将会被删除
      '/',
      'demo.tutorialzine.com'
)

Cookies and jQuery
在jquery中使用cookies，你需要一个插件Cookie plugin.

Setting cookies
用Cookie plug-in设置cookies是很直观的:

复制代码代码如下:

$(document).ready(function(){  

     // Setting a kittens cookie, it will be lost on browser restart:  
     $.cookie("kittens","Seven Kittens");  

     // Setting demoCookie (as seen in the demonstration):  
     $.cookie("demoCookie",text,{expires: 7, path: '/', domain: 'demo.tutorialzine.com'});  

     // "text" is a variable holding the string to be saved  
 }); 

Reading cookies
读取cookie甚至更简单，只需要调用$.cookie()方法，给它一个cookie-name就可以了,这个方法会返回cookie的值:

复制代码代码如下:

 $(document).ready(function(){  

     // Getting the kittens cookie:  
     var str = $.cookie("kittens");  

     // str now contains "Seven Kittens"  
 }); 

Deleting cookies
删除cookie，只需要在次使得$.cookie()方法,把第二个参数设置为null就可以了。

复制代码代码如下:

 $(document).ready(function(){  

     // Deleting the kittens cookie:  
     var str = $.cookie("kittens",null);  

     // No more kittens  
 }); 

完整例子：
demo.php

复制代码代码如下:

// Always set cookies before any data or HTML are printed to the page
$visited = (int)$_COOKIE['pageVisits'] + 1;
setcookie( 'pageVisits',    // Name of the cookie, required
    $visited,     // The value of the cookie
   time()+7*24*60*60,   // Expiration time, set for a week in the future
   '/',      // Folder path, the cookie will be available for all scripts in every folder of the site
   'demo.tutorialzine.com'); // Domain to which the cookie will be locked
?>
