Date Object in IE

[DigitalBoy]

I'm attempting to write a cookie for IE4 and for the life of me I can't get it to remember the "expires" tag. Has anyone written a cookie specifically for IE4? If so, could you post some sample code? Thanks.

you shouldn't have a problem...this is what I usually use:

var expireDate = new Date
var cookieName = "name"
var cookieVal = "value"
expireDate.setMonth(expireDate.getMonth()+3)

document.cookie = cookieName + "=" + cookieVal + ";expires=" + expireDate.toGMTString();

Greg,

This is what I thought. This is exactly what I had and I wanted to just have it verified. I'm testing some code on a new piece of hardware and the developer(s) forgot to configure it so that cookies would be stored permanently, not just for the current session.
