Hi .. i have some session cookies (NON http only) set . They are deleted when the session ends or when the user closes the browser.

False. If the user closes the browser , then nothing happens.( if not user settings on clear cookies on exit)

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178195.aspx

Using Javascript you can set the value of cookies but can't delete it. To delete it explicitly on some event use below code
```
If (someeventhappened)
{
 If(!Page.Request.Cookies["SessionId_"]!=null)
{
Response.Cookies["SessionId_"].Expires = DateTime.Now.Add(-10);
}
Session.Abandon();
}
```
```
