Put A Variable In A Cookie?
Mar 25, 2010I'm a beginner. I tried this:
...
document.cookie =
"var numberOpen=1; max-age=1800"
...
numberOpen++
...
Are there other ways?

I've avoided cookies for 12 years. I made my first cookie today:
<p><a href="projects.html" onclick="document.cookie='whichPic=8'">Set Cookie</a></p>
I have an external javascript sheet with an array of images w/text and the following code:
var current = 0;
function update() {
var pic = slides[current];[code]....
When the user clicks the link, it should open the page to the slideshow and it should start on slide[8]. I think what I need to do is pass the value of the cookie to the variable "current", but I don't know how to do that. Also, I only need the cookie to last long enough for the new page to load (about 20 seconds), but all of the cookie scripts I've found set expiration in days.
I'm working on an internal website at work and employees have a cookie created when they login to the customer support tool. The filename is cookie:username@domain.com/ and I'd like to use javascript to pull a variable for their username to plug into a URL for a unique link when they're viewing one of our intranet pages.
@domain.com/ will always be the same but I don't know how to pull the unique username from the filename of the cookie. I don't need to actually read the cookie.
We are using a cookie (written in javascript and url encoded and decoded) to store form variables so that when the page is reloaded we can keep the form variables. We are having a problem with the email address field - the cookie only returns the email address up to the @ symbol and we have narrowed it down to the regexp function....
if (func == 'read')
{
if (thisCookie != '')
{

I'm more of an actionscript person but got roped into an html/javascript job.What I need to do, and it shouldn't be that difficult is this:page1.html - there is a yellow button and a red button - if the user clicks on the yellow button I want to set a cookie with the value "yel" then load the next page - if they click the red button set that cookie with the value "red"page2.html - 'onload' i want to read that cookie and load up the main image to match, something like this maybe?... document.mainimage.src='img/main_' + variable + '.png'so that the path would be for example 'img/main_red.png'f you think this would be easier sending that variable in the URL instead of as a cookie please explain. I'm having a very hard time searching for tutorials that are any good and that do exactly this kind of thing.

Can I make a list of hyperlinks that users can customize and save as a cookie by clicking a button and automatically retrieve the cookie so it remembers their list next time? This is kind of what I want to do:

I am making a sort of text based game (Just a hobby) I like to do that sort of thing. So, anyway, considering all I can really do is code HTML, and very, very light javascript, I kinda need some help.
I basicly know how to do everything except affect & Use the cookies. So what I need to do with them is to
#1.) Have a code to change the cookie number, say... on the click of a button.
#2.) Have a code where it only displays certain text if the cookie is a certain number.
I cant code JS and have no idea how hard/easy this is.
If it is insanely hard & needs a master coder, just tell me and ill take it off. I dont want to be wasting anyones time.
I have an embedded system with a web interface. One of the web pages
has a small JavaScript program that, when run on IE6, always displays
the message that cookies need to be enabled:
if (document.cookie.indexOf('asm_session') == -1)
{
document.cookie = 'asm_session=0'
if (document.cookie.indexOf('asm_session') == -1)
{
document.write("Advanced System Management access requires
cookies to be enabled."+'<br><br>');
}
}
This problem only occurs with IE6, not Mozilla. It also only happens
on some of the embedded systems, but this problem exists for everyone
running IE6.
The problem isn't limited to the Javascript code, either. On another
web page from this embedded system, a cookie is set the normal way,
via the HTTP header. This cookie is also rejected.
When I display any page that attempts to set a cookie, IE6 displays
the blocked icon and says that cookies on that URL are blocked.
However, I have set all privacy and cookie options to their most
permissive. I've spent the past hour changing every option I can find
that's even remotely related to cookies and privacy, and nothing
changes. Does anyone have any idea what's going on?
In my web application we are able to store large data in the browser
cookie keeping in mind the limit of 300 cookies per cookie file, 20
keys per cookie per domain and 4KB max size of each cookie. We are
unable to retreive this large amount of data immediately after storing
through document.cookie in IE browser (The same works fine in
Netscape).
Is there any limit on the size of the data that can be retreived using
document.cookie in IE browser? Could you please suggest a solution to
this problem I am facing.
I am trying to set a cookie in my cookie directory but this is not working.
document.cookie = "username=John;

I am trying to declare a variable inside a function and use it later on in my code... but it just already returns white space... i.e. not variable value. I am setting it within this function:
function show_video1(){
document.getElementById('video1').style.display="block";
var video1Name = "Education World News (Part 1)";
document.getElementById('video2').style.display="none";
document.getElementById('video3').style.display="none";
document.getElementById('video4').style.display="none";
[Code]...
and trying to call it later on with this: <script type="text/javascript">document.write(video1Name)</script> It might be worth noting that each one of my 11 videos will hace a different name.
Ok, so I've built a member search using ajax to change the results each time a filter is changed. It works great, except one minor issue that I'm struggling with...I just can't specify dynamically in the parent file that linkclass$id opens linkclasscontent$id as I don't know of any way to pass that $id variable back over to the parent.

I have a set of different links, like:
<a href="link.com?page=text1">text 1</a>
<a href="link.com?page=text2">text 2</a>
<a href="link.com?page=text3">text 3</a>
etc, where page is dynamic and can be anything I chose..
Another place in the same document, I echo out what the page variable is, like:
echo "$page";
so when clicking "text 1" the echo will output what i've defined the page to be, in this case "text1" ..
So I want to be able to click the links and change the output of the echo all depending on what i've defined in the link - without refreshing the page!
Is there any easy way to do this?
a.) specify two parameters for the changeYear function: today and holiday.
function changeYear(today)(holiday){
b.) in the first line of the above function, use the getFullYear() date method to extract the 4-digit value from the today variable and store the value in a variable named year.
first line
c.) in the second line; use the setFullYear() date method to set the full year of the holiday date object to the value of the year variable.
second line
d.) in the third line, use a conditional operator on the year variable. The test condition is whether the value of the holiday date object is less than the today date object. If it is, this means that the event has already passed in the current year and the value of the year variable should be increased by 1.
third line
e.) in the fourth line of the function, again set the full year value of the holiday date object to the value of the year variable.

I am simply trying to use a global variable in javascript, but can only access the variable on the second call. I can't find anything that relates to this through my searches. My application is supposed to query the server for XML that tells me which years and months are available to put into combo boxes. I want to store this xml in a global variable to access it later.

I start outside of the external JS file by: reviews.init(); reviews.initialiseContent('comment'); This loads my data and loads + sets the comment tab as default. My problem is that in the external JS file (shown below) the loadTabs variable will not allow me to pass it a variable: contentDiv.onclick = this.initialiseContent; Whenever I pass a variable here it errors, am I setting this up correctly, should I be using prototype for my this. variables? Interested to hear back on if this structure of code is the right way to go about this and also how I can pass a variable in this way :)

I have a programing problem that have been around for ages. I have search on google using several expressions and words and after hours of digging i'm still unable to do it.I would like to get a value from a HTML page hosted remotely with an inconstant value. Then define this value and name as a javascript variable and apply or show in my page.P.S. Is there any way to make a domain lookup in javascript? I mean a user enters a domain and the script converts to an ip and shows to the user. If not thanks, probably it can only be done in the server side...
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have this piece of javascript:
document.cookie="fadedin=yes; expires=Fri, 27 Jul 2020 02:47:11 UTC; path=/"
which sets a cookie which prevents an annoying popup from being presented to users of my site after their first visit. It doesn't appear to work in IE6 though,
Very irritating and difficult problem with cookies and IE (5 & 6), maybe someone could give a hint what's wrong. We have a frameset (navigation + banner + footer + main frame, basic stuff), and cookies are set on the main frame's <body OnUnload> event. When i click a link on the navigation the page on the main frame gets unloaded and cookie is set, and then i want to do stuff with that cookie on the next page.
Very simple, but problem is this: if I use IE i have to click the navigation link 2 times (= to load the new page twice) to make it work. And sometimes the values are not shown on the new page even though the cookie is always set properly. I have an alert box on the JS function which is driven correctly on onload and the values seem correct. Basically with IE this cookie stuff works without any sense and logic. Code:
Is there any way to protect the browser's cookie, prevent users from
modifying it?
Seems some browsers, such as Opera, provides a very easy to use
interface for user to modify the cookie value.
I have a problem with cookies set via javascript. What I try to
achieve is, when a user comes on the intranet, he can click on a link (
a simple href) that will set the content to french or english. I want
to set a cookie to persist that choice each time the user comes back on
the intranet. This feature must be available everywhere on the
intranet and the link is placed in an inner asp script called Menu.asp
which is included each time a page loads.
Now, I know it's maybe not the best way to achieve this but I'm just
working from what has been made by others, I cannot change the way
things are made, too much work would be involved and they won't accept
to give time to do everything all over again.
The best approach I got was to set a querystring value and replace the
cookie value from vbscript code. The problem is, the intranet we have
use a lot of the querystrings for a lot of features and when I click
the English/French link, that info is lost. I've tried to set a
mechanism to keep all the querystring and only add a new value but I
got weird results...
So I've turned to Javascript and still got no luck... For some
reasons, the cookie gets deleted from the cookie file as soon as my
javascript modifies the cookie.
Here's an example:
