Thank you for sending that! However, with my poor cookie knowledge, I'm not
sure what to do with it.
I'm assuming the 'WM_setCookie' is what downloads the script to the
visitor's hard drive and 'WM_readCookie' is what saves a data file to a
folder I specify. Is this correct? Why would I want to use 'WM_killCookie'?
Also, I'm not sure what to put for these values: ('name', 'value'[, hours,
'path', 'domain', secure]). Do you know of an example one I could look at?
I'm thinking 'name' is of course the name of the cookie -- can this be
anything I want?
But what am I supposed to put in 'value'?
I want this to be persistent and not have an expiration date, so can I leave
'hours' blank?
Is 'path' the path to the folder I want it to save the data files in?
And I have no idea what to put in 'domain' or 'secure'.
I know these are a lot of questions, but I really want to try and understand
this so I can do it for myself next time.
Thank you so much!!!
