Hi, You can simply set session cookie, where name is "abc" and value is "123", with this code: document.cookie = 'abc=123; path=/'; To set a persistent cookie with calculated expiry time, you can use this code: var d = new Date(); d.setTime(d.getTime()+(3600*1000)); var e = '; expires=' + d.toUTCString(); document.cookie = 'abc=123'+e+'; path=/'; You can also set cookie by this code, if you know the exact expiry date: document.cookie = 'abc=123; expires=Thu, 12 Aug 2019 15:30:00 UTC; path=/'; To read value of cookie "abc", you can use this code: var c = document.cookie.match(new RegExp('(^| )abc=([^;]+)')); if (c){ alert(c[2]); } | |||||||||||
