Try the time in sec, it shud work

setcookie('user', 'someone', time() - 2592000, '/'); 

Added after 2 minutes:

if you wana to let cookie expireswhen the browser is closed, skip the time() param

setcookie('user', 'someone');

you mean something like this?

$timeout = time() - (60 * 24 * 60 * 60);
setcookie ("uvw999", "", $timeout "/");

Yes,

$expire = time() - 5184000;
setcookie ("uvw999", "somedata", $expire);

setcookie ("uvw999", "", $timeout "/");

Lets this is ur initial Cookie

$till = 5184000; 
setcookie("key", "var", $till);

to reset

$till = 100; 
setcookie("key", "gone", $till);
