[Solved] Codeigniter & google chrome CSRF works fine in firefox

Hi,

I have everything working so far with CSRF and fire fox.

How ever when I submit my form on google chrome my form validation error messages do not show up.

But the show up in fire fox? Any suggestions

Unless it's because CSRF is protecting form so I can only use one browser at a time?

I have attached the view

PHP Code:

$config['cookie_prefix']    = 'ci_';
$config['cookie_domain']    = '.localhost';
$config['cookie_path']        = '/';
$config['cookie_secure']    = FALSE;
$config['cookie_httponly']     = TRUE;

$config['csrf_protection'] = TRUE;
$config['csrf_token_name'] = 'my_post_key';
$config['csrf_cookie_name'] = 'cookie_name';
$config['csrf_expire'] = 7200;
$config['csrf_regenerate'] = TRUE;
$config['csrf_exclude_uris'] = array(); 


PHP Code:

<?php

class Newthread extends CI_Controller {

    public function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();
        $this->load->library('form_validation');
        $this->load->model('newthread_model');
        $this->load->helper('smiley');
    }

    public function index() {
        $data['title'] = 'Newthread in ' . $this->newthread_model->get_forum_title($this->uri->segment(2));

        if ($this->input->post('preview_submit')) {
            $data['preview'] = parse_smileys($this->input->post('message'), base_url('assets/images/smileys/'));
        } else {
            $data['preview'] = '';
        }

        $data['smiley_table'] = get_clickable_smileys(base_url('assets/images/smileys/'), 'message');
        
        $this->form_validation->set_rules('subject', 'subject', 'required');

        if ($this->form_validation->run() == false) {

            $this->load->view('header', $data);
            $this->load->view('newthread', $data);
            $this->load->view('footer');

        } else {

            if ($this->input->post('preview_submit')) {}

            if($this->input->post('newthread_submit')) {

                redirect("forum/" . $this->uri->segment(2));

            }

        }
    }
}

There's only one rule - please don't tell anyone to go and read the manual.  Sometimes the manual just SUCKS!

Solution for me now both browsers work fine now.

I have had to create a vHost instead of just using normal localhost.

And then on

PHP Code:

$config['cookie_prefix']    = 'ci_';
$config['cookie_domain']    = '.dev_project.com';
$config['cookie_path']        = '/';
$config['cookie_secure']    = FALSE;
$config['cookie_httponly']     = TRUE; 


It's fun learning what works and does not. Not sure why vhost better?
