Javascript cookies

Featured Replies

Hi all,

 

I've been trying to set, get and delete js cookies for a while now, although they seem to set (from what I can tell) I can't seem to do what else I need with them.

 

This is what I'm trying to do:

 

Function1 - setCookie (sets a cookie called 'saveAndExit' - that's it, no expiry date)

 

Function2 - useCookie (checks to see if a cookie called 'saveAndExit' exists and if it does alert("COOKIE WORKS") and then deletes the cookie

 

If it doesn't exist alert("cookie does not exists")

 

Could anyone assist with this? It's been driving me insane for days!

 

Thanks.

The best resource online about JavaScript cookies is the article on quirksmode It explains what cookies look like, how to use them for data and has some helper functions at the bottom to set, check and delete the cookie
