where you you put it in this code.\/

var test="hi there this is an example";
window.document.cookie = test

Justin, that code works but only while that browser window is open. What you are using is called "session" cookies, and you can only use this cookie one time. Then it is deleted. You have to set the expiration date for the cookie for it to stay on the computer. Anyways, here is (as Dave pointed out) the way to set the path parameter:

var test="hi there this is an example; path=/";
document.cookie = test

Dave, you gettin' confused with ASP? test=" + test; not &. & is used in ASP. ;)
