Can jQuery read write cookies to a browser

Question

Simple example  I want to have some items on a page  like divs or table rows   and I want to let the user click on them to select them  That seems easy enough in jQuery  To save which items a user clicks on with no server-side post backs  I was thinking a cookie would be a simple way to get this done    Is this assumption that a cookie is OK in this case  correct  If it is correct  does the jQuery API have some way to read write cookie information that is nicer than the default JavaScript APIs

You ll need the cookie plugin  which provides several additional signatures to the cookie function     cookie  cookie name    cookie value   stores a transient cookie  only exists within this session s scope  while   cookie  cookie name    cookie value    cookie expiration   creates a cookie that will last across sessions - see http   www stilbuero de 2006 09 17 cookie-plugin-for-jquery  for more information on the JQuery cookie plugin   If you want to set cookies that are used for the entire site  you ll need to use JavaScript like this   document cookie    name value  expires date  domain domain  path path  secure

The default JavaScript  API  for setting a cookie is as easy as   document cookie    mycookie valueOfCookie expires DateHere path      Use the jQuery cookie plugin like     cookie  mycookie    valueOfCookie

To answer your question  yes  The other have answered that part  but it also seems like you re asking if that s the best way to do it   It would probably depend on what you are doing  Typically you would have a user click what items they want to buy  ordering for example   Then they would hit a buy or checkout button  Then the form would send off to a page and process the result  You could do all of that with a cookie but I would find it to be more difficult    You may want to consider posting your second question in another topic

You can browse all the jQuery plugins tagged with  cookie  here   http   plugins jquery com plugin-tags cookies  Plenty of options there   Check out the one called jQuery Storage  which takes advantage of HTML5 s localStorage  If localStorage isn t available  it defaults to cookies  However  it doesn t allow you to set expiration
