I wrote a JavaScript Cookie Handling Library in Nov of 2005 for the same reason that you wrote one--I was dissatisfied with JavaScript's capabilities in this area and I didn't like a lot of what I was finding written by other people (which was very little). I found yours today when I was googling to see where my library fell in the search rankings for the terms 'JavaScript Cookie Library'. While I won't link to my library from here without an invitation (as I do not want to spam) I just wanted to say that I like yours a lot. Some specific things in yours are certainly better than my own, though I do have some things in mine that I like better than yours. Specifically, I like that yours uses regular expression to find the value within the document.cookie string as I am using some long and elementary string position method to find the cookie/value. I also like the real OOP feel that yours has. Mine is written in an OOP manner, bu still has a bit of a procedural feel to it. However, in mine I have tried to account for every parameter that I believe the developer should be able to control when setting a cookie including path, domain, and HTTPS only. I was also wondering what benefit you find in allowing for aliases? I am not critiquing it--just wondering. Have you released yours under any specific license? I'd love to roll some concepts from yours into mine, but don't want to be a thief. If you'd like to take a look at mine and offer some critique on it, I can email you a link or post it here in the comments. Just let me know. Thanks a lot, Jim Hi Alex!
