How Large Can a Single Cookie Be? - PHP Script Tips - Understanding and Managing Cookies
✍: FYIcenter.com
How large can a single cookie be? The answer is depending what is the Web browser your visitor is using. Each browser has its own limit:
If you want to test this limit, copy this sample script, huge_cookies.php, to your Web server:
<?php if (isset($_COOKIE["HomeSite"])) { $value = $_COOKIE["HomeSite"]; } else { $value = ""; } $value .= "http://dev.FYICenter.com/faq/php"; setcookie("HomeSite", $value); print("<pre>\n"); print("Large cookie set with ".strlen($value)." characters.\n"); print("</pre>\n"); ?>
Open your browser to this page for first time, you will see:
Large cookie set with 32 characters.
Click the refresh button, you will see:
Large cookie set with 64 characters.
Keep clicking the refresh button, you will see the limit of your browser.
