my set_cookie() function is not working

[riddhibhatia]

Hie....my set_cookie function is not working. I dont know why it is happening as there is no error also...i am setting it through javascript.......

var live_element;
function fokus(ele,path) 
{
    //alert(ele);alert(path);return false;
    live_element = ele;
    //alert(live_element.id);    //LIKE C_NAME
 
    if(Get_Cookie('live_element'))     //Go to 873
    {
        Delete_Cookie( 'live_element');
    }
    Set_Cookie( 'live_element', live_element.id,'',path,'','' );
    //Set_Cookie( name, value, expires, path, domain, secure )
}
 
function Set_Cookie( name, value, expires, path, domain, secure ) 
{
 
// set time, it's in milliseconds
var today = new Date();
today.setTime( today.getTime() );
 
/*
if the expires variable is set, make the correct 
expires time, the current script below will set 
it for x number of days, to make it for hours, 
delete * 24, for minutes, delete * 60 * 24
*/
if ( expires )
{
expires = expires * 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;
}
var expires_date = new Date( today.getTime() + (expires) );
 
document.cookie = name + "=" +escape( value ) +
( ( expires ) ? ";expires=" + expires_date.toGMTString() : "" ) + 
( ( path ) ? ";path=" + path : "" ) + 
( ( domain ) ? ";domain=" + domain : "" ) +
( ( secure ) ? ";secure" : "" );
 
}
 

Here , the 'live_element' named cookie is not generated...what could be the problem?

when you pass '' as the expires param then your function will produce an invalid date for expires_date ... you could fix that with an adapted condition:

if ( expires ) {
    expires = expires * 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;
} else {
    expires = 0;
}
