No, I just tested it myself - if you set a cookie with no expire date it
exists until the browser window is closed.

My code:

<?php

if (!isset($_COOKIE['TestCookie']))
{
 setcookie ("TestCookie", "FUD");
 echo "Just Set a cookie - reload the page";
}
else
{
 echo "Cookie is : {$_COOKIE['TestCookie']}<br>Close the window then return
and the cookie should be gone";
}

?>

HTH
