neophyte Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Hi Larry, I am using IE8. I changed my privacy settings to: 'Override automatic cookie handline' and I marked "Prompt" under both First-party and Third-party Cookies. When I go to any www.'website'.com I get a Privacy Alert message. But when I run Script 9.1 as http://localhost/view_settings.php, it proceeds with no alerts, warnings, or prompts, and goes right to a page showing my choices. I tried substituting your script from the downloads, just to find if it was an error in my script, but I got the same results. (I wanted to try it in FireFox,[version 3.6.17] but I was unable to find the options I needed in the privacy settings tab... ) Any suggestions? THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathon Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I run firefox 5.0 but it should in options > privacy > history > "use custom settings for history" (This may be a drop down box saying either 'remember history', 'never remember history' or 'use custom settings'. Then you can change your cookie preferences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I forget whether I explicitly say this in the book or not (I believe I do), but some browsers, and by some I think I just mean IE, won't prompt for cookies when running sites on localhost. This is in a tip, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
