Hi,
The answer to this is probably a one line, but i can’t find it
anywhere.
How do I make a cookie expire when a browser is closed (ie when the
session ends)? The expiry key in the cookie hash only seems to take
dates.
Thanks,
Scott

Set it to a date in the past… like 1.day.ago

Actually, if you set a cookie without giving an expiration date, it
is only retained until the browser is closed. (Which can mean the
program itself, not just a window or a tab.)
An expiration in the past will delete the cookie immediately.
