[pmwiki-users] Setting and getting cookies in PmWiki

[Bellave Jayaram]

Thanks for the offer Jo but I have a limited budget and am more interested
in the research. 

In my case, all I need to store is a list of strings (which are anchors in
PmWiki pages) and I need to write the code for checkout which does not need
to pass anything to PayPal or other outside API but to compose content that
is stored in PmWiki markup. In other words, my "checkout" will be a variant
implementation of PmWiki's "include" markup code. The additional requirement
is that I would like to use ARC and SPARQL
(http://www.appmosphere.com/pages/en-arc_sparql_parser) that will query an
RDF store against the strings in the cookie to obtain a list of matching
resources.

If anyone is interested in working on such semantic web related projects
using PmWiki and PHP, please contact me. 

FYI, here are a couple of links that might interest some audiences -

Plenty.

PHP makes this easy; take a look at the pages on "sessions" on php.net.
Actually it's so easy that the code that covers your specifics will 
probably be an order of magnitude more than the code needed to collect 
the data.

If you have money to spend on something like that, just drop me a note ;-)

Jo
