storing a cookie indefinitely

[davidklonski]

hello there

I was wondering whether it is possible to set a cookie indefinitely?

I looked at the setcookie() API and the expiration parameter is a Unix timestamp.

Is there a way to send a cookie to the browser which will stay there forever (unless the user deletes it) ?

thanks in advance

That i know of there is no direct way to set a cookie so that it never expires. I guess if you actually have a practical reason to need something like this, just set the cookie to expire in 30 years or so. . . (time() + 943488000)
