In other words, "nothing happening" is what is supposed to happen, since persistent cookies are written to the disk when created. If your CGI.pm creation call did not specify an expiration date, the cookie was created with session lifetime. If you want to delete a cookie that was created persistent by an earlier session, my guess is that you reset it to any value without specifying an expiration date, although I haven't tried. The documentation with CGI.pm appears to be adequate for figuring this out. >When I baked my cookies I set it with a path and expiry data.
