I was going to set cookie samesite property to none.

PHP version is 5.3 and OS is Ubuntu 12.04.

Here is code:

setcookie("key", "value", time()+30*24*60*60, "/; samesite=None", "mydomain.com")

This never worked.

When I changed None to Strict, Lax, or just (null value), they were all worked.

Only None value didn't work.

Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.

Update your php version. – Abu Nooh Dec 14 '20 at 20:17
what does "didn't work" mean? – Sindhara Dec 14 '20 at 20:17
@kuh-chan nothing working! cookie value wasn't saved. – LoveCoding Dec 14 '20 at 20:18
You didn't set the secure flag. From the docs: "If SameSite=None is set, the cookie Secure attribute must also be set (or the cookie will be blocked)." – Sindhara Dec 14 '20 at 20:21
@AbuNooh well, I don't think it's possible for me now. PHP, Ubuntu version is very old but site is live and there are a lot of customers. – LoveCoding Dec 14 '20 at 20:21
@kuh-chan, where can I set Secure attribute? When I put Secure attribute, they didn't work. (Strict, Lax didn't work too) – LoveCoding Dec 14 '20 at 20:22
Does your site run with https and certificate? – Sindhara Dec 14 '20 at 20:24
ohh, It's not ssl. Is that matter? – LoveCoding Dec 14 '20 at 20:25
Great! Btw, does PHP 5.3 support samesite=None attribute? – LoveCoding Dec 14 '20 at 20:38
