Can headers be sent in an AJAX request?
- by sombe
Can I call the server to set a new cookie with an AJAX request (that is, after the page has already loaded)?
For example, when a visitor hits a link, ajax would open a php file that sets a new cookie like this:
setcookie('cookiename', 'true', time()+3000, "/",'...');
But this is done after the html (the page containing the actual <a> tag pressed) was rendered. Is it nevertheless ok to set cookies in ajax? (maybe because the php file loaded is separate from the original html page).
