I have a script that sets 3 cookies. They have expiration dates but I don't know how to read the date and force people to login again. I've made some changes to my site and want to force people to login so their pages aren't cached. I'm reading the cookie like this: 
    local(@getcookies) = split (/; /,$ENV{'HTTP_COOKIE'});
    local(%cookies);
    foreach(@getcookies){
        ($ckey, $cval) = split (/=/,$_);
        $cookies{$ckey} = $cval;
    }
    $username = $cookies{'reguser'};
    $password = $cookies{'regpass'};
    $regtype = $cookies{'regtype'};
    $login = "Login" if ($username && $password && !$logout);
    }

The cookies get set like this: 
$expires=&calc_cookie_expires(-1);
            &write_cookies;
sub write_cookies{
    print "Set-Cookie: reguser=$username; expires=$expires; path=/;\n"
+;
    print "Set-Cookie: regpass=$password; expires=$expires; path=/;\n"
+;
    print "Set-Cookie: regtype=$regtype; expires=$expires; path=/;\n";
}

I need to read the date and based on the date force everyone to sign in again so the cookie is set again. Thanks.
