[Resolved] How to unset a cookie?

[Petraverse]

Hi,

Is the only way to delete/unset a cookie to overwrite it with one which expires in time()-3600? And even that wouldn't work if the person who' runs it is in a time zone like 5 hours behind server time or has their clock set wrong...

Any ideas?

Thanks

Use the setcookie() function and set the time for something that would encompass all times in the past, regardless of their location in relation to the server.

setcookie ("the_cookie", "", time()-86400); 

Something like the above would be 24 hours, so it should work regardless...

Alright I'll use that then. Just wasn't sure if there was a function (like session_start and session_destroy) to do it.

Thanks
