Cookie for username...

howdy..

A webpage that Im designing at the moment has a need for a username to be displayed in plain text in a corner of a table. I know the calls that it makes, SetCookie and GetCookie, and I downloaded a behaviour for it in DW, but I couldnt implement it. Can anyone help me? Even if getting the Username involves using a popup box, then stores the input as a cookie for the next time the user logs on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, how do I get the colured forms? Eg, instead of grey, You can make your comments form blue etc. I remember a tutorial for this, does anyone have the link?


Thanks in Advance.

you can set cookie just like this

[code]
function setcookies(){
var exp=new Date();
var oneYearNow=exp.getTime()+(365824860*60*1000);

document.cookie="username=yoursname;expires="+exp.toGMTString();
alert(document.cookie);
}

[/code]

like what?
