Custom Cookie

[Mib1]

Couldn't I have a PHP script written that does;

1. Using the $ENV auth_user call in my script to retrive
the username of the member in question. Then,

2. Access the mysql database table user for VB using the username from above.

3. Ask for the data in fields lastvisit, userid and password and,

4. Write a cookie which would include the data for lastvisit, userid and password.

I don't know specifically how to write the PHP or PERL cookie writing code with data from a MYSQL database. (Please send examples if you know of any.)

Also, I don't know what all the numbers are for that are inside the cookie VB is currently writing.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
