Here I'll show you the javascript which generates the cookies:

I hope this will help you, e.g. by creating a simple page which just does as listed below.

BTW I use these files also locally (i.e. with file://). I have a scrabble game which uses the same functions for saving the game which works excellent on all browsers except the webkit engine on microb.

Hope this helps you to looking at this problem.

Code:

<!-- saved from url=(0014)about:internet -->
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

<html>
  <head>
    <title>cookie test</title>
    </head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">

function getcookievalue(name)
{
    var ind;
    name += '=';
    str = document.cookie;
    if ((ind = str.indexOf(name)) != -1)
    {
        var end = str.indexOf(';', ind);
        if (end == -1) end = str.length;
        str = str.substr(ind+name.length, end-ind-name.length);
        str = unescape(str);
        return str;
    }
    return '';
}

function setcookievalue(name, value)
{
    name += '=';
    var expDays = 100;
    var exp = new Date();
    exp.setTime(exp.getTime() + (expDays*24*60*60*1000));

    var expire = '; expires=' + exp.toGMTString();
    var str = name + escape(value) + expire;
    document.cookie = str;
}

alert(getcookievalue('test'));
setcookievalue('test', new Date());


</script>
</body>
</html>
