Para eliminar una cookie, la configuré nuevamente con un valor vacío y caduca en 1 segundo. En detalles, siempre uso uno de los siguientes sabores (tiendo a preferir el segundo):
1)
function setCookie(key, value, expireDays, expireHours, expireMinutes, expireSeconds) {
var expireDate = new Date();
if (expireDays) {
expireDate.setDate(expireDate.getDate() + expireDays);
}
if (expireHours) {
expireDate.setHours(expireDate.getHours() + expireHours);
}
if (expireMinutes) {
expireDate.setMinutes(expireDate.getMinutes() + expireMinutes);
}
if (expireSeconds) {
expireDate.setSeconds(expireDate.getSeconds() + expireSeconds);
}
document.cookie = key +"="+ escape(value) +
";domain="+ window.location.hostname +
";path=/"+
";expires="+expireDate.toUTCString();
}
function deleteCookie(name) {
setCookie(name, "", null , null , null, 1);
}
Uso:
setCookie("reminder", "buyCoffee", null, null, 20);
deleteCookie("reminder");
2
function setCookie(params) {
var name = params.name,
value = params.value,
expireDays = params.days,
expireHours = params.hours,
expireMinutes = params.minutes,
expireSeconds = params.seconds;
var expireDate = new Date();
if (expireDays) {
expireDate.setDate(expireDate.getDate() + expireDays);
}
if (expireHours) {
expireDate.setHours(expireDate.getHours() + expireHours);
}
if (expireMinutes) {
expireDate.setMinutes(expireDate.getMinutes() + expireMinutes);
}
if (expireSeconds) {
expireDate.setSeconds(expireDate.getSeconds() + expireSeconds);
}
document.cookie = name +"="+ escape(value) +
";domain="+ window.location.hostname +
";path=/"+
";expires="+expireDate.toUTCString();
}
function deleteCookie(name) {
setCookie({name: name, value: "", seconds: 1});
}
Uso:
setCookie({name: "reminder", value: "buyCoffee", minutes: 20});
deleteCookie("reminder");
setCookie('name', 'value', 0)
para eliminar una cookie.
