I think that one thing I had to do was delete ALL cookies from my
browser... then make sure all my code named cookies in UPPER CASE.  Once
I had the "old" cookies out of there things worked better.


Give that a try and let me know how it works.

NOVAK --

Yes I did get your message. And I did change my code to reflect that (
all
uppercase cookie names ). But still having the same problem. Do you
think
the fact that I'm working on a local testing machine ( could that be the

culprit ).

Using CFMX 6.1.

Something that I noticed... when I remove my CF code to delete the
cookies... the old values come back !!!!. How can this be, if I have
deleted
them ?.

I putting my cookie deletion code in an included cfmx template. Not sure
if
this makes a difference either.
