I want to use javascript to check if current broswer support cookie or not?do you think it is possible or not?

Thanks a lot.

Why not just set a cookie and then try to read from it? You could set the cookie to expire in a minute or so, so it won't be hanging around on the users computer...

This code should let you know if you have cookies.

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function setcookie()
{
var cookieDies = new Date();
cookieDies.setTime(cookieDies.getTime() + 30*1000);
document.cookie="havecookie=yes;expires=" + cookieDies.toGMTString()
}
function havecookie()
{
if (document.cookie != "")
{
alert ("You have cookies");
}
else
{
alert ("You don't have cookies");
}
}
</script>

</head>
<body onload="setcookie();havecookie()">
</body>
</html>
