I'm running this code,
<html>
<head>
<title>D</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jQuery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="Cookie.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready( function() {
$.cookie("d", "1") ;
}) ;
</script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
alert( $.cookie("d") ) ;
</script>
</body>
</html>
It's showing '1' on Firefox, IE, but 'null' in chrome. Any idea why? I'm using latest jQuery and cookie plugin from http://plugins.jquery.com/files/jquery.cookie.js.txt
Chrome doesn't support cookies for locals unless you start it with the --enable-file-cookies flag. You can read a discussion about it at here
*Chrome does support cookies if you use the local IP address (127.0.0.1) directly. so in the localhost case, that could be an easier workaround.
