[Resolved] Trouble Deleting Cookies

[Cole_PD]

I'm coding a user log in section of my site and I'm having trouble with cookies. I'm able to set them just fine, but when I go to unset them, nothing happens.

This is the code I use to set the cookie:

$twoyears = date("Y") + 2; 
setcookie("cnop_username","$_POST[username]",mktime(0,0,0,1,1,$twoyears));
setcookie("cnop_password","$entered_password",mktime(0,0,0,1,1,$twoyears));

And this is the code I use to delete the cookie:

setcookie("cnop_username","");
setcookie("cnop_password","");

For whatever reason, the code to unset the variables in the cookie does not work. Does anyone have any ideas?

I think you need to give it a negative time -- such as

setcookie ("cnop_username", "", time() - 3600);

I thought I tried something like that earlier, but apparently not because it seems to be working fine now.

Thanks 🙂
