Get cookie expiration

Question

Is it possible to read cookie expiration time with php ? When I print_r($_COOKIE) it outputs:

Array
(
    [PHPSESSID] => 0afef6bac83a7db8abd9f87b         


        

Answer 1

no, there is no way.
Browser uses cookie parameters (path, expiration etc) only to determine to send a cookie or not, but none of these parameters being sent back to server.

don't think of a cookie as of a $_SESSON array member but as an HTTP header. That's always helps.
