Look at the source code and see if <%=concat%> is resolving to what you expect it to. For example if <%=concat%> is supposed to resolve to foobar then you should have in your browser's view-source:
<body onLoad = "javascript:setCookie(foobar);">

If that is the case, post your question in the JavaScript forum, else post back here.

Hope this helps,

also, do not use the "javascript:" pseudoprotocol in an event handler.

wrong:
<body onLoad = "javascript:setCookie(<%=concat%>);">

right:
<body onLoad = "setCookie(<%=concat%>);"> =========================================================
if (!succeed) try();
