Question

I am using cookie plug in my application. where i display some information from cookies.
it is working fine with firefox, but have some issues with IE.
It works fine if i open a new tab in IE, it shows values from cookies, but if i close IE browser window it clears all cookies.
this is not the case with mozilla, every time i open mozilla it shows those specific values from cookies.
below is the code i use to set/get cookies.

function setCookies(){<br/>      
   if($('select[id$="ddlFromStation"]')[0].selectedIndex!=0){<br/>
      $.cookie('d_from',$('select[id$="ddlFromStation"]').val());<br/>
   }<br/>
   if($('select[id$="ddlToStation"]')[0].selectedIndex!=0){<br/>
      $.cookie('d_to',$('select[id$="ddlToStation"]').val());<br/>
   }<br/>
   if($('input[id$="txtFromStation"]').val()!=""){<br/>
      $.cookie('i_from',$('input[id$="txtFromStation"]').val());<br/>
   }<br/>
   if($('input[id$="txtToStation"]').val()!=""){<br/>
      $.cookie('i_to',$('input[id$="txtToStation"]').val());<br/>
   }<br/>
   return true;<br/>
}<br/>
$(document).ready(function(){<br/>
 if($.cookie('d_from')!=null){<br/>
    $('select[id$="ddlFromStation"]').val($.cookie('d_from'))<br/>
 }<br/>
 if($.cookie('d_to')!=null){<br/>
    $('select[id$="ddlToStation"]').val($.cookie('d_to'))<br/>
 }<br/>
 if($.cookie('i_from')!=null){<br/>
    $('input[id$="txtFromStation"]').val($.cookie('i_from'))<br/>
 }<br/>
 if($.cookie('i_to')!=null){<br/>
    $('input[id$="txtToStation"]').val($.cookie('i_to'))<br/>
 }<br/>
}); <br/>

You are not setting an expiry and by default cookies should expire on browser close. I’m not sure why Mozilla isn’t doing this which is the real bug.

Try:

$.cookie(COOKIE_NAME, VALUE, { expires: 10 }); /* Expires in 10 days */
