Jquery Cookie

[yomoore]

Hi all,

I need to set a cookie using jquery (I think jquery is the simplest and I like simple:))
I have this:

$("#close").click(function(){

$("#block").fadeOut(200);

});



$("#open").click(function(){

$("#block").fadeIn(200);

});

The code hides and shows a (div) block of content. I need a cookie so that a visitor is not presented with the default style every time one visits my website.

Thanks

Hi soap,

When I was googling the anwser the links you give me where the first I encountered. This was two days a go and I still don’t understand…

Using the jQuery cookie plugin – you would need to do the following (in order):

1. Check to see if the user has your cookie already
2. Set a cookie with the user

To set the cookie, it would look like:

setCookie(name, value);

To see if the user already has the cookie – you would do:

if($.cookie(name))

{

// Cookie already set

// Do something

}

else

{

// Cookie not set - so set it

setCookie(name, value);

}
