dojo.io.cookie.deteteCookie fails to delete domain cookies

[elricho66@…]

Tested on FF 1.5, Windows XP

Test case : The first alert shows the cookie still hangs about. The second alert shows the cookie is removed.

dojo.io.cookie.setCookie("democookie","myvalue",90,"/",".starport.net",0); dojo.io.cookie.deleteCookie("democookie"); alert(dojo.io.cookie.getCookie("democookie")); dojo.io.cookie.setCookie("democookie",0,0,"/",".starport.net",0); alert(dojo.io.cookie.getCookie("democookie"));

Double checked against the test HTML file in test/io/, seems to work just fine (calling dojo.io.cookie.getCookie("foo") and dojo.io.cookie.getCookie("obj") returns null).

I'm still able to recreate this bug within my application in FireFox? 2.0.0.6. Internet Explorer 7 seems to remove the cookies properly though.

dojo.io.cookie.setCookie("TestCookie?", "CookiesTasteGood?", 7300, "/"); console.debug(dojo.io.cookie.getCookie("TestCookie?")); dojo.io.cookie.deleteCookie("TestCookie?"); console.debug(dojo.io.cookie.getCookie("TestCookie?"));

The above fix mentioned does work.

Just wanted to have someone look at this, so that it doesn't make its way in 0.9.

Unless you tested this in 0.9 (its already released...) reopening this ticket+the information you provided doesnt help much...

To explain a little more in-depth...

The moment you set a path or a domain in your cookie(s), DOJO is unable to remove the cookie properly in FireFox? (2.0 at least), but seems to remove the cookie in Internet Explorer 7.

Setting milestone to 1.0 so we don't lose it. We should confirm that the issue does not happen in the 0.9+ codebase.

the deleteCookie API is gone, so you basically use the second method to remove cookies now.
