The information being stored in the cookie. This value must be specified for each cookie being set. Format is name=value, such as cookie1=rapid development. An all numeric date is assumed to be a date in D3 internal format. A date containing non-numeric characters is converted to an internal date. |

The date the cookie expires. Default is today. An all numeric date is assumed to be a date in D3 internal format. A date containing non-numeric characters is converted to a D3 internal date. |

expire.time |
In |
The time the cookie expires. Default is one second before midnight GMT. An all numeric date is assumed to be a time in D3 internal format. A time containing non-numeric characters is converted to a D3 internal time. The expire.date and expire.time are combined to create the cookie's expiration timestamp. The cookie's expiration timestamp is assumed to be GMT based. Localization of the timestamp is up to the application. So if expire.time is 1100 (GMT) equivalent time is 0300 PST. If neither expire.date or expire.time are specified, the cookie expires at midnight of the current day. |
