Remove a cookie

Question

When I want to remove a Cookie I try

unset($_COOKIE[\'hello\']);

I see in my cookie browser from firefox that the cookie still exists. How

Answer 1

If you want to delete the cookie completely from all your current domain then the following code will definitely help you.

unset($_COOKIE['hello']);
setcookie("hello", "", time() - 300,"/");

This code will delete the cookie variable completely from all your domain i.e; " / " - it denotes that cookie variable's value all set for all domain not just for current domain or path. time() - 300 denotes that it sets to a previous time so it will expire.

Thats how it's perfectly deleted.
