[SOLVED] Php Cookies

[LaRoza]

I am having trouble with cookies.

 

I can set the cookie and read it value, but I can not delete it.

 

Could anyone tell me the proper way to delete a cookie, this cookie in particular:

 

setcookie('created','1',time()+3600);

 

Thank you!

<?
function destroycookie($name){
setcookie("$name", "", time()-3600);
}
destroycookie('created');
?>

Does it have to be on the same page on which the cookie is set?

 

I can use the function if it is only on the same page; however, it fails to delete it if it is on another.

it shouldnt matter which page your removing the cookie from... as long as you have access to the function... or just use the bare essentials from it...

 

setcookie('created', "", time()-3600);

 

that works just as well...

basically your just setting a blank cookie overtop of the old one, that expired an hour ago(immediatly)...
