JS Cookies

[em4]

hello,

two question about cookies :

1. I'm learning about JS cookies from the W3 site
http://www.w3schools.com/JS/js_cookies.asp

In the example they told to assign the toUTCString() method
to the date object, I guess its because the cookie object
can get only strings.

But when i tried to assign the 'document.cookie' a regular
date object, 'Without using toUTCString()', everything was
worked prefectly.

So, Do i have to convet the dat object to string?
(maybe its a browser compatible issue)

2. Why the script above (from w3) didn't work
in some browsers at my computer (it worked perfectly when
i upload it to some server in all browsers)?
In my computer, It didnt works in chrome and in opera.

Thanks for your answers

Hy,
The value of document.cookie property must be a string, in the following format:
document.cookie = "name=value";
- You can’t have spaces, commas, or semicolons inside the string.
See also JavaScript cookies, it has more explanations and a nice example (which works)
