delete cookie then close

[monkeyboy]

Hi there. I'm trying to write a script that will delete a cookie called 'access' then close the popup window. Having a bit of trouble... this is what I've got so far:

<script>
ByeThen() {
eraseCookie('access')
function eraseCookie(name)
{
        createCookie(name,"",-1);
}
        window.close()
}
</script>

Cheers

why not just do document.cookie=""?
That would clear the whole cookie file I think.

Thanks TwoD... thing is I'm having trouble writing it into a script that I can call from a text 'close' link. Where do I name the cookie I want to delete? Cheers, P.

Cookies have no names, and you can only have one per page.
You can set name/value pairs in them and then separate them using cookieString.split("=").
