Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] max length of a cookie value?
From: dietrich@ganx4.com (Dietrich Ayala)

fyi:
- i'm using php 4.3.7 on iis/winxp
- the cookies are from Netegrity's Siteminder, a single-sign-on app

just tested same scenario using php 4.3.2, and the value was *not* 
truncated. so i've either got a configuration issue of some kind, or 
it's a bug introduced since 4.3.2.

repro code:

if(!isset($_COOKIE['SMSESSION']))
{
	$setcookie = 1;
	setcookie('SMSESSION',"8/1d6WFvsI02Rw+e/KaP/UbwhaskmyUK14vz26b6K++AHGFK/LPidQ5sCsEPFu1AAOrCRWOycy4fhxlY9Ah30/f0zIj0IJIcnvBltkbeOnUnMZKC+AWoLImVJ+QnY6ypwMLQ86ib9z7m7gGta38Z+5ZiWrDPf2Q6lKyLrnk5eWWio7MlAZLz02b1q5hGdJFWMOychRTDDqyY4wNMhs9H4RtspYVrVIV/Du3KOk0REuAuhc9OWTyf1RcUvt6SP/90P/Q1//d48RWyFIJpoSKi2/W0dv+25Q4WcyHUPOID1YZD/NeatftivKIYzvoYLUi+p2YhaC4eX9nkhA+CHsUImm1nYLvIv4OFo19/c8ESpB8VMYo/mhZig/89NeNvJmflFNIrT7Grx33B1osa83qezigrELlYvbmfm3UueVjFQHGM9o6tPWxH+lPJnTdcPaJNLRbX5Tc8cvPi107E2ulE8/PYvm82ez+/gdql3nh37Gtz4H5ah4Iz/pWRHcUQFrzzAQGdapMNetzi/XDxrrx5hVAprU3ZPeYbtrVK8lP+IhDFz09fTlcQm124GHdJLpqasGokN4WIBGAG4dyJINSgfNlgmKyfrVMCX/jcIefPFMUqBGtLGZGqyVmMwmIXqJUdbLsNzvQDeJV/sex/X0hW/FdvleycC+DGn/kAH4TuHI5nRCePP0JzSpv9Xfe5iGRorHIRaPFKyjZxHxwXRMpAbAma/EOG2lcF0sYL8jh4mEf0Mf54zcFKPA/HzvSfkLw9D/oQ6e3Z9jZbBMTKmpKwRGVEeZovzlP71OqlDpnkX2J1bQkJbVa4BJVCkOVwfI8Vikf0TKLmDM25Q8pX8fYiapAC9SJ6KTEoI1tP2JYk5bOLafjPT1OjkEsgCYHDt642Ow9qhhkRwtMxw+cyXRIqYxOYNsSUCl8lhDq1KoaxeriURi2DXA0sS2VMuBGXpTNnyimJM
l+uq7/6tRV1V4nkXm9dES1VQ8YdgwdOAyuiI");

}

echo "setcookie: $setcookie<br>";
echo var_dump($_COOKIE);

i'll file a bug on this if i don't hear otherwise from this list.

thanks,
