I messed around with this some more. Netscape 4.51 Mac and 4.07 WinNT do
the same thing. My DTML seems to send the expire as described below. Out
of desperation I tried MSIE 4.01 Mac and it worked perfectly. Aack! Has
anyone else noticed this with Netscape? Does anyone have a workaround? 

I have a building full of Netscape, which I couldn't change if I wanted
to because we have a two groups of SGIs. I want to expire cookies set by
UserDB to logoff users without quiting Netscape. (Quiting Netscape DOES
work BTW).

Any help would be apprecieated. This seems like a Netscape bug though :(
