We are using it to test behavior of AJAX updates when the session expires.</p> <p>Here it is, drag to your bookmarks: <a href="javascript:!function(){function createCookie(name,value,days){if(days){var date=new Date;date.setTime(date.getTime()+24*days*60*60*1e3);var expires='; expires='+date.toGMTString()}else var expires='';document.cookie=name+'='+value+expires+'; path=/'}function readCookie(name){var nameEQ=name+'=';var ca=document.cookie.split(';');for(var i=0;i&lt;ca.length;i++){var c=ca[i];while(' '==c.charAt(0))c=c.substring(1,c.length);if(0==c.indexOf(nameEQ))return c.substring(nameEQ.length,c.length)}return null}function eraseCookie(name){createCookie(name,'',-1)}var target='JSESSIONID';if(null==readCookie(target)){alert('No cookie named '+target+' found');return}if(confirm('Do you want to delete the cookie named '+target+'?'))eraseCookie(target)}();">-JSESSIONID</a></p> <p><strong>This makes use of <a href="http://www.quirksmode.org/js/cookies.html">Peter-Paul Koch&rsquo;s code from quirksmode.com</a></strong></p>
