Can someone modify this javascript for me to delete the cookies once the session is over? I thought it was a simple as setting the expiration to 0, however when I refresh my browser I loose all my information.
CODE:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=”JavaScript”>
// Cookie Functions //////////////////// (?
// Set the cookie.
// SetCookie(‘your_cookie_name’, ‘your_cookie_value’, exp);
// Get the cookie.
// var someVariable = GetCookie(‘your_cookie_name’);
var expDays = .25;
var exp = new Date();
exp.setTime(exp.getTime() + (expDays*24*60
function getCookieVal (offset) {
var endstr = document.cookie.indexOf (“;”, offset);
if (endstr == -1) { endstr = document.cookie.length; }
return unescape(document.cookie.substring(offset, endstr));
}
function GetCookie (name) {
var arg = name + “=”;
var alen = arg.length;
var clen = document.cookie.length;
var i = 0;
while (i < clen) {
var j = i + alen;
if (document.cookie.substring(i, j) == arg) return getCookieVal (j);
i = document.cookie.indexOf(” “, i) + 1;
if (i == 0) break;
}
return null;
}
function SetCookie (name, value) {
var argv = SetCookie.arguments;
var argc = SetCookie.arguments.length;
var expires = (argc > 2) ? argv[2] : null;
var path = (argc > 3) ? argv[3] : null;
var domain = (argc > 4) ? argv[4] : null;
var secure = (argc > 5) ? argv[5] : false;
document.cookie = name + “=” + escape (value) +
((expires == null) ? “” : (“; expires=” + expires.toGMTString())) +
((path == null) ? “” : (“; path=” + path)) +
((domain == null) ? “” : (“; domain=” + domain)) +
((secure == true) ? “; secure” : “”);
