Last update on December 20 2024 10:20:59 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Write a PHP script to check if a cookie named "visited" exists. If it does, display a welcome message; otherwise, display a default message.

Sample Solution:

PHP Code :

<?php
$cookieName = "visited";

if (isset($_COOKIE[$cookieName])) {
    echo "Welcome back! You have visited before.";
} else {
    echo "Welcome! This is your first visit.";
}

?>

Sample Output:

Welcome! This is your first visit.
