the following is taken from the API docs..
" setMaxAge
public void setMaxAge(int expiry)
Sets the maximum age of the cookie. The cookie will expire after that many
seconds have passed. Negative values indicate the *default behaviour*: the
cookie is not stored persistently, and will be deleted when the user agent
(web browser) exits. A zero value causes the cookie to be deleted. "

Depends upon what are you using the cookie for....

I think you can do that...

I think the problem there must be the spaces in your querry.. try to encode
the String having the SQL querry before using the string in the cookie
constructor by using the method java.net.URLEncoder.encode(String) and then
use the method java.net.URLDecoder.decode(String) to get back the sql from
the string from the cookie
