Thanks, it did work now.
But a question keep remain, why PHP seem recognize those COOKIEs still
exist? Setcookie("register") do eliminate all of the "Register" array
inside the COOKIE, as when i checked with print_r ($_COOKIE) it give
result :
Array ( [PHPSESSID] => f0cf5ed37c49006512def3576cfb7171 [register] => )
It means [register][one], [register][two] are no longer exist so the
"isset" function suppose to return "FALSE"?

Cookies are set with the name you set them to.
You also need to delete them with the name(s) you set them to. Thus
deleting these cookies:
setcookie("register[one]");
setcookie("register[two]");
RTFM:
"You may also set array cookies by using array notation in
the cookie name. This has the effect of setting as many
cookies as you have array elements, but when the cookie is
received by your script, the values are all placed in an
array with the cookie's name"

Description:
------------
I'm using PHP Ver.4.3.2
I have the same problem too, when use setcookie(<cookiename>), Cookie
is
set to %00 instead of erased.
The problem happen when it hit this syntax :
if(isset($_COOKIE['register'])) {echo
$_COOKIE['register'];}
Neither isset or !empty function could detect whether it's empty or
not.
It always return true, so it will try to display the value
$_COOKIE['register'] that has been deleted. It returned error message
:
Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in D:\My Web\register.php on
line
186
Thanks in advance.
Reproduce code:
---------------
setcookie("register[one]","Bill"); //Set the cookie
setcookie("register[two]","Jim");
setcookie("register") //Delete the cookie
if(isset($_COOKIE['register']['one']))
{echo $_COOKIE['register']['one'];
} else
{echo "COOKIE Not Exist";
}
Expected result:
----------------
It should display "COOKIE Not Exist" as the cookie has been deleted.
Actual result:
--------------
It try to display the value of deleted COOKIE. It generated error :
Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in D:\My Web\register.php on
line
186
