JQuery.Cookie_V1.4.1前端辅助工具，跨页面记录用户的操作习惯！

## Installation

Include script *after* the jQuery library (unless you are packaging scripts somehow else):

```html

<script src="/path/to/jquery.cookie.js"></script> 

```

## Usage

Create session cookie:

```javascript

$.cookie(‘the_cookie‘, ‘the_value‘); 

```

Create expiring cookie, 7 days from then:

```javascript

$.cookie(‘the_cookie‘, ‘the_value‘, { expires: 7 }); 

```

Create expiring cookie, valid across entire site:

```javascript

$.cookie(‘the_cookie‘, ‘the_value‘, { expires: 7, path: ‘/‘ });

```

Read cookie:

```javascript

$.cookie(‘the_cookie‘); // => "the_value" $.cookie(‘not_existing‘); // => undefined 

```

Read all available cookies:

```javascript 

$.cookie(); // => { "the_cookie": "the_value", "...remaining": "cookies" }

```

Delete cookie:

```javascript

// Returns true when cookie was found, false when no cookie was found... 
$.removeCookie(‘the_cookie‘);

// Same path as when the cookie was written... 
$.removeCookie(‘the_cookie‘, { path: ‘/‘ }); 

```

*Note: when deleting a cookie, you must pass the exact same path, domain and secure options that were used to set the cookie, unless you‘re relying on the default options that is.*

## Configuration

### raw

By default the cookie value is encoded/decoded when writing/reading, using `encodeURIComponent`/`decodeURIComponent`. Bypass this by setting raw to true:

```javascript $.cookie.raw = true; ```

### json

Turn on automatic storage of JSON objects passed as the cookie value. Assumes `JSON.stringify` and `JSON.parse`:

```javascript $.cookie.json = true; ```

## Cookie Options

Cookie attributes can be set globally by setting properties of the `$.cookie.defaults` object or individually for each call to `$.cookie()` by passing a plain object to the options argument. Per-call options override the default options.

### expires

    expires: 365

Define lifetime of the cookie. Value can be a `Number` which will be interpreted as days from time of creation or a `Date` object. If omitted, the cookie becomes a session cookie.

### path

    path: ‘/‘

Define the path where the cookie is valid. *By default the path of the cookie is the path of the page where the cookie was created (standard browser behavior).* If you want to make it available for instance across the entire domain use `path: ‘/‘`. Default: path of page where the cookie was created.

**Note regarding Internet Explorer:**

> Due to an obscure bug in the underlying WinINET InternetGetCookie implementation, IE’s document.cookie will not return a cookie if it was set with a path attribute containing a filename.

(From [Internet Explorer Cookie Internals (FAQ)](http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ieinternals/archive/2009/08/20/wininet-ie-cookie-internals-faq.aspx))

This means one cannot set a path using `path: window.location.pathname` in case such pathname contains a filename like so: `/check.html` (or at least, such cookie cannot be read correctly).

### domain

    domain: ‘example.com‘

Define the domain where the cookie is valid. Default: domain of page where the cookie was created.

### secure

    secure: true

If true, the cookie transmission requires a secure protocol (https). Default: `false`.

## Converters

Provide a conversion function as optional last argument for reading, in order to change the cookie‘s value to a different representation on the fly.

Example for parsing a value into a number:

```javascript $.cookie(‘foo‘, ‘42‘); $.cookie(‘foo‘, Number); // => 42 ```

Dealing with cookies that have been encoded using `escape` (3rd party cookies):

```javascript $.cookie.raw = true; $.cookie(‘foo‘, unescape); ```

You can pass an arbitrary conversion function.
