Hi all

I am trying to write a javascript function to set a cookie and to later
check if the cookie exists.

What I have so far:

<SCRIPT>

<!--cloak engaged

function SetCookie (name, thevalue) {
document.cookie = name + ' = ' + thevalue + ';
}


function prompt(){
message = "message here";
prompt = confirm(message);

if (prompt) {
parent.Setcookie('preload', 'true');
}
}
</script>

When I run this I get dialog box that says "undefined" and has a user input
that also says "undefined".  I am not sure what is causing this... any
clues?
