JavaScripting Help
Can someone please help...
Go to:
I need to make that so that when you close the popup window it deletes the cookie. Currently if it sees the cookie you can either tell it to ignore it or accept it and not display if the cookie is there...Please help...
Thanks,
Taylor

I'm not a javascript guru (by far), but try something like this:
// all of this goes in the popup window
<html>
<script language=javascript>
<!--
function deleteCookie() {
expireDate = new Date
expireDate.setDate(expireDate.getDate()-1)
<strong>cookieName</strong> = <strong>cookieName</strong> + "=;expires=" + expireDate.toGMTString()
}
//-->
</script>
<body onUnLoad="deleteCookie()">
blah blah blah
</body>
</html>
I copied most of this out of a book, but I haven't tested it.
Good Luck,

looks like it's "alreadypopped"
so the code would looks like this:
// all of this goes in the popup window
<html>
<script language=javascript>
<!--
function deleteCookie() {
expireDate = new Date
expireDate.setDate(expireDate.getDate()-1)
cookieName = "alreadypopped=;expires=" + expireDate.toGMTString()
}
//-->
</script>
<body onUnLoad="deleteCookie()">
blah blah blah
</body>
</html>
Hope that works for ya.
