Hi,
I tried this and the damned cookie is still there!
Response.Cookies[admin.COOKIE_USER].Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-10);
Response.Cookies[admin.COOKIE_PSWD].Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-10);
Response.Cookies[admin.COOKIE_USER].Value = null;
Response.Cookies[admin.COOKIE_PSWD].Value = null;
Response.Cookies.Remove(admin.COOKIE_USER);
Response.Cookies.Remove(admin.COOKIE_PSWD);
Maybe it's the way I set the cookie?
HttpCookie cookieUsr = new HttpCookie(COOKIE_USER, username);
cookieUsr.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1000);
HttpCookie cookiePwd = new HttpCookie(COOKIE_PSWD, encryptedValue);
cookiePwd.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1000);
Response.SetCookie(cookieUsr);
Response.SetCookie(cookiePwd);
Thanks for any help!
