This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation
better.
FALSE is the same as '', which is the method described for unsetting a
cookie. I've added a note to explain this better.

Description:
------------
I was attempting to set a cookie using a boolean. TRUE works correctly
as 1 but setting it FALSE would not save a cookie at all.
Reproduce code:
---------------
setcookie("name",FALSE,time()+60*60);
if you print_r($_COOKIE); it won't display name as being in the
$_COOKIE array but if you
setcookie("name",TRUE,time()+60*60);
it lists name == 1 in $_COOKIE
Expected result:
----------------
If it's a by design issue it might be a good idea to include this in
the docs stating not to use booleans with cookies.
