Hello i'm building my own simple MVC framework. When I tried to create login page all worked - session all ok. But when I try to work with cookies, it doesn't work. Exactly deleting cookie don't work. :( Please help me, i can't find any solutions on google. File code where I'm trying to delete cookie:

<?php
class HomeController extends Controller {

    function __construct(){
        $this->view = 'testView';
    }


    public function index($params){
        if(isset($_COOKIE['logged'])){
            echo "cookie exists";
        } else{
            if($_POST){
                if(isset($_POST['rr'])){
                    setcookie('logged', true, time()+3600);
                }
            }
        }
    }

    public function logout($params){
        setcookie('logged', null, time()-3600);
    }

}

Thanks.

If you're not on local server, the problem can be your website is using pretty urls so you have to specify other parameters of the setcookie() method like this:

setcookie('logged', 'true', time() + 3600, '/', '.yourdomain.com', null, true);

Also notice specifying the last parameter to protect the cookies from being stolen using XSS attack.

However, I think you want to use sessions, we don't usually use cookies for logging in/out. Cookies can be used for permanent login, but not for the core mechanism.

When I needed stock photos related to iso tank images I turned to this online service, and I was not disappointed. The collection was comprehensive and diverse, offering images that perfectly suited my project requirements. The high-resolution images were of top-notch quality, and the platform's search functionality made it a breeze to find the specific ISO tank images I needed. This service exceeded my expectations, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking 'ISO tank' images for their projects.
