Read .net Cookie Value w/PHP

Hi all, I have a strange situation. We're working on a site in parallel with another programmer. We're using PHP for all the pages and he has a .net cart solution. Everything seems to be fine except for 1 small issue on the PHP nd that's reading from one of his cookies. He has the .net & .php in a different folder structure so I don't know if that plays into it.

(BTW this is a case of "I found someone to do the cart cheaper")

We just need to get the # of items in the cart from it to show in the menu! This is what we got from the developer:

Cookie Name : anetsoft
Key Name: Wholesale
Key Name: CartItemCount

Values are 0,1,2,3 etc....

Here is the simple PHP which echos nothing:

	$cart = $_COOKIE["CartItemCount"];
	$type = $_COOKIE["Wholesale"];
	echo("cart contents: " . $cart . "<br/><br/>");
	echo("user type: " . $type);

Code (markup):

and we've tried:

	$cart = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["CartItemCount"];
	$type = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["Wholesale"];
	echo("cart contents: " . $cart . "<br/><br/>");
	echo("user type: " . $type);

Code (markup):

Any ideas?

 

Try this to see what cookies are set. Make sure that you have visited one of the .net pages that would set a cookie.

echo "<pre>";
print_r($_COOKIE);
echo "</pre>";

PHP:

My guess is that you would need to access the cookie like $_COOKIE['anetsoft'];

 

Thanks. Another hang up is that we aren't allowed to FTP to this staging server so QA is a hassle of emailing files to "try and see if this works". I will email him a new file. Is it possible to do something like this? (I'm guess no)

$_COOKIE["anetsoft"]["Wholesale"];
