Expire local shared object?

[JayCharles]

Is there any way to set an expiration time for a local shared object as you can with a cookie?

Thanks.

You could do:

code:

---

var d;

var mySO = SharedObject.getLocal("expTest", "/");

if ( !mySO.data.expirationDate) {

	var daysTillExpiration = 5;

	d = new Date();

	d.setDate(d.getDate() + daysTillExpiration);

	mySO.data.expirationDate = d;

}



d = new Date();

trace("current : " + d);

trace("expires : " + mySO.data.expirationDate);

if (mySO.data.expirationDate < d) {

	trace( "expired" );

} else {

	trace( "still valid");

}
