[SOLVED] cookie not deleting

[immanuelx2]

login.php:

setcookie('id', $userinfo['id'], time()+60*60*24*31*3 , '/');

 

logout.php:

setcookie('id', '', time()-60*60*24*2);

 

Any idea why it is not deleting my cookie?

<?php
setcookie('id', '', time()-60*60*24*2), '/');
unset($_COOKIE['id']); // for good measure

 

Try that.

nice

weird, it worked the first time, but now it still doesn't log me out...

 

login.php:
<?php
setcookie('id', $userinfo['id'], time()+60*60*24*31*3 , '/');
header("Location: " . $_POST['redirect']);
?>

logout.php
<?php
setcookie('id', '', time()-60*60*24*2);
unset($_COOKIE['id']);

header("Location: ".$_POST['redirect']);
exit;
?>

Sometimes the header tag does not run well with sessions and cookies try this instead:

 

logout.php
<?php
setcookie('id', '', time()-60*60*24*2);
unset($_COOKIE['id']);

echo '<script type=text/javascript>location.href="' . $_POST['redirect'] . '";</script>';
//header("Location: ".$_POST['redirect']);
exit;
?>

boo why don't they fix that? that Jscript creates a back button circle

why does this not work....

 

setcookie('id', '', time()-60*60*24*2);
unset($_COOKIE['id']);

echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5; url='.$_POST['redirect'].'">';
require 'header.php';
echo 'You are now logged out! Redirecting...';

 

everything displays correctly but.. that damn cookie is still there

[teng84]

setcookie("name", "", -1);

use this to destroy cookie instead of unset

i figured out what it was

 

i had to inclue the '/' field in the second time around...
