I currently have a cookie script that allowes me to set a background
on my website, assuming that all my file names look like this:
image1.jpg image2.jpg etc..  and you load them by going
index.php?setArt=1 . However I want to have different file names like
Hi-thisis_fun.gif HoWare-you-bob.jpg, etc... I basically just need a
setcookie script that lets me say setArt=iambob.jpg (i would actually
prefer that the .jpg part was not on the line but if that is what is
needed to allow different file extensions I understand.

I am currently using this script twice on my website to set different
images, I would like to use it another time to set css files, but I
would actually prefer to have 1 script that let me set 4 or 5
different things, so setArt, setCss, setBG, setColor, setOther....
This is not a requirement, but if you can do that to the script AND
get it to let me use any file names on the set line, I will give a
bonus on the answer.

I will include my current script, but feel free to paste your own if
you have one that works better as I am in no way attached to the
script, so long as I have a way to define the path to each variable in
the script, it will do the trick.

<?php 
 
if (!empty($setart)) { 
 $art = $setart; 
 setArt(); 
} elseif (!empty($_COOKIE['art'])) { 
 $art = $_COOKIE['art']; 
} elseif (!empty($diecookie)) { 
 dieCookie(); 
} 
 
 
function setArt() { 
 global $art; 
 setcookie('art',$art,time()+2678500,'/','thesmartass.info'); 
} 
 
function getArt() { 
 global $art; 
  
 $default_art = "random.php?pic=random1"; 
 
 $image_dir = "./images/artwork/"; // trailing slash is important. 
 $image_path = "images/artwork/"; // here too. 
 $image_prefix = "image"; 
 $image_suffix = ".jpg";
  
 if (!empty($art)) { 
  $imagefile = $image_prefix.$art.$image_suffix; 
  if (!file_exists($image_dir.$imagefile)) { 
   $imagefile = $default_art; 
  } 
 } else { 
  $imagefile = $default_art; 
 } 
  
 return $image_path.$imagefile; 
} 
 
function dieCookie() { 
 setcookie('art','',time()-2678500); 
} 

?>
