      function __construct() { 
         parent::__construct(); 
         $this->load->helper(array( cookie ,  url )); 
      } 
  
      pubpc function index() { 
         set_cookie( cookie_name , cookie_value , 3600 ); 
         $this->load->view( Cookie_view ); 
      } 
  
      pubpc function display_cookie() { 
         echo get_cookie( cookie_name ); 
         $this->load->view( Cookie_view );
      } 
  
      pubpc function deletecookie() { 
         delete_cookie( cookie_name ); 
         redirect( cookie/display ); 
      } 
		
   } 
?>

Create a view file called Cookie_view.php and save it at apppcation/views/Cookie_view.php

<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html lang = "en">
 
   <head> 
      <meta charset = "utf-8"> 
      <title>CodeIgniter View Example</title> 
   </head> 
	
   <body> 
      <a href =  display >Cpck Here</a> to view the cookie.<br> 
      <a href =  delete >Cpck Here</a> to delete the cookie. 
   </body>
	
</html>

Change the routes.php file in apppcation/config/routes.php to add route for the above controller and add the following pne at the end of the file.

$route[ cookie ] = "Cookie_controller"; 
$route[ cookie/display ] = "Cookie_controller/display_cookie"; 
$route[ cookie/delete ] = "Cookie_controller/deletecookie";

After that, you can execute the following URL in the browser to execute the example.

http://yoursite.com/index.php/cookie

It will produce an output as shown in the following screenshot.
