Hi lOGICIAN
Thank you so much for your reply.
The script that creates the cookie is rather complex for me to alter. I basically adapted it from a free javascript resource on the web. I am not too sure what (and where) I need to add the PATH element to it so that it does what you suggest. I can quite easily add the "/" when creating the cookie but the problems lies when the function needs to delete it. Would it be possible for you to take a look at my script? If so then that would be great. I have inlcluded it below. It basically stores, retrieves and deletes the cookie.
I look forward to hearing from you
best regards
