Subject: [SERVLET-INTEREST] Maximum Age of A Cookie
> Hi All
>
> I am using the setMaxAge(int expiry) of Cookie class to set the age of the
cookie. The method says ---
>
> A negative value means that the cookie is not stored persistently and will
be deleted when the Web browser exits. A zero value causes the cookie to be
deleted.
>
> Now the only thing left is the positive number and the maximum limit of
integer makes the cookie persistent for only 25 days, because the parameter
to this method is in millisecond.
>
> Does anybody knows how to make the cookie persistent till somebody deletes
it.
>
> Thanks & Regards
