how to logout by cookie?

Anon

Hi, my question is how to delete a cookie so that the user could logout? I set cookie("login",$login, time+60); then i tried to delete that cookie by cookie("login","",time()+60);
but it didn't work.....
please help

Note: I also tried to delete by cookie("login","",time());
cookie("login","","time-60); but all didn't work as well

Did you try

setcookie("login","");

So without defining a timeout period?

Try this:
setcookie("login");

Isn't it so that you have to delete a cookie with the same number of parameters as with which you have set it?

You delete it by setting it the same way. Just use - instead of +.

For instance when I have my members login(I run a clan site @ http://www.elitegaming.org/btb/ for counter-strike) I set a cookie by

setcookie ("BTB_MEMBER_NAME", $member, time()+3600);
setcookie ("BTB_MEMBER_PASSWORD", $password, time()+3600);
}

when they logout it does the exact opposite thus deleting the cookie

setcookie ("BTB_MEMBER_NAME", $member, time()-3600);
setcookie ("BTB_MEMBER_PASSWORD", $password, time()-3600);
