cookie expiration date in IE6

icepig · 11-14-2003, 09:04 AM

Hi, any idea on how to convert a datetime value in IE6 cookie file into a readable datetime?

example cookie file:
--------------------------------
bblastvisit
1056743762
www - linuxquestions - org/
1536
2609640704
29645751
1162649504
29572326
*
--------------------------------

Thanks

It's a UNIXTIMESTAMP (seconds since 1/1/1970), so using PHP for instance you can use the date function to do so. Refer to the manual for more information!

Thanks, I tried this:
>>> echo date("Y-m-d", 2609640704);
but it returns:
>>> 1916-08-05

Can you give me some more details?
