Hi Duncan,

One obvious thing in the above code is that in the 3rd line you've missed
the underscore in your variable assignment.  ie.  you've got "the cookie
= ..." instead of "the_cookie = ..."

If it's not that, try sticking a few alert statements bwn each line to
see that your var's are assigning correctly and so on.

Not much, but HTH
