Setting a cookie

[runa]

You know this visual effect from Lightroom or Photoshop: By pressing a certain key, the UI fades out and only the image itself remains in front of a black screen. I know how to this on my website with CSS and jQuery, but my photo gallery has one html-page per photo. If you fade out on 01.html and get to 02.html, the fade out is reset. Unfortunately I have no idea how to set a cookie in order the user can stay in fade-in- oder fade-out-mode until he finishes the photo tour.

May be someone has a tip how to set this cookie?

Thanks!

Perhaps one other option, instead of trying to go the cookie route, is using a modal popup that supports HTML files (assuming that I am understanding this correctly.)

You should be able to load an html file into the modal window, and then set it up in such a way that clicking the next/previous buttons within the modal window changes the file.

For example, with the nyromodal demo, a visitor can click on an image, displaying the modal window, and then click the small "next" button, displaying a video from utube, and then next again to view a webpage, etc…
