neophyte 0 Posted June 29, 2011 Report 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 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jonathon 255 Posted June 29, 2011 Report 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 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Larry 428 Posted June 30, 2011 Report 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
