I need to set expiry time of say 30 mins on my clients browser and i ve used the following possible codes to do it :
# ini_set('session.cookie_lifetime',time()+30);
#setcookie('user_id','1',time()+10);
and many more but later i found out that it depends on the setting of :
session.cookie_lifetime value set in php.ini file of server.
So may i know how do i change settings so that i ll be able to set cookie expiry time as i want and not till session expires.
Currently whenever i set a cookie,its default expiry time is "till session expires".
I am using browsers: IE9.Firefox 4 and chrome for testing and al give the same results.
Kindly suggest moves
