title: Can jQuery read/write cookies to a browser?
body: <p>Simple example: I want to have some items on a page (like divs or table rows), and I want to let the user click on them to select them. That seems easy enough in jQuery. To save which items a user clicks on with no server-side post backs, I was thinking a cookie would be a simple way to get this done.</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Is this assumption that a cookie is OK in this case, correct?</li>
  <li>If it is correct, does the jQuery API have some way to read/write cookie information that is nicer than the default JavaScript APIs?</li>
  </ol>
