I've got a cookie that's either non-existent or a serialized array. I'm 
trying all sorts of different code combinations to retrieve it into an 
array variable, but everything I try throws up some combination of 
notices and/or warnings. Here is my latest & greatest:

$cookie = $_COOKIE['bookmarks'];
if(unserialize($cookie) == true) {
    $bookmarks = unserialize($cookie);
} else {
    $bookmarks = array();
}
Use isset
if ( isset ( $_COOKIE['bookmarks'] ) && unserialize ( 
$_COOKIE['bookmarks'] ) ) {
	$bookmarks = unserialize ( $_COOKIE['bookmarks'] );
} else {
	$bookmarks = array();
}
