Hi all.
I'm not sure where this question should go, but I figured this was as good as any. Firstly, I'm new to drupal, but I've got a test site up and running on XAMPP which I'm playing with and managed to add pages, modules etc and it's going OK.
I'm attempting to convert a website for an association, which has been hand coded in php, to drupal to make it easier to maintain and extend.
My question concerns membership of the association. At the moment it uses coookies to store the membership number and email address of the site user (if they're a member of the association, although non-members can still log in to the site). I want to be able to read these cookies from within drupal, but where would I do this? Should I write a module to do it or modify an existing drupal file?
Just to let you know, I'm new to websites in general, so please be gentle!
Thanks,
Graham
