Javascript Cookie with no expiration date

Question

I would like to set up a cookie that never expires. Would that even be possible?

 document.cookie = \"name=value; expires=date; path=path;domain=domain; secu         


        

Answer 1

You can make a cookie never end by setting it to whatever date plus one more than the current year like this :

var d = new Date();    
document.cookie = "username=John Doe; expires=Thu, 18 Dec " + (d.getFullYear() + 1) + " 12:00:00 UTC";
