Is it possible purely in PHP to find out if cookies are enabled without reloading the page?

Question

PHP

Hi
Chet I don't get it.
Situation: a person opened the site page for the first time. Is there any way to know if his browser supports cookies without reloading the page and JS/Ajax? If possible, please provide an example.

Answer 1

It is forbidden.
You can only get the passed headers by the browser.
But it won't mean anything.

Answer 2

You can try to prevent him from opening the page for the first time. Those. if there are no cookies at all - issue an empty page setting cookies with a refresh.
But in this case, a person with disabled cookies will not see your site at all, but will receive an eternal redirect.

Answer 3

You can cheat with session.use_trans_sid , but this is such a solution and the page address will look disgusting
