I have looked over some things, but I do not have a clear understanding of
"how" I can read a cookie into my RPG
program to process a "basket".  Am I missing something obvious, or is it
more complex than that???

I can tell that you can get the cookie, return it as a string - but say I
have an apply button; and within
the cookies I have multiple records to update, how do I set the string up so
that the RPG can read in the data??

Also the cookie would need the following fields to work effectively for me
(item#/amount/percent/qty/dept#/sku#)
I would also want the cookies to expire within an hour or less, and the
examples I have found do not really tell
me how to put in the time formulas I need; they are either set back so they
expire or set so far up that they really
never expire...

Any suggestions as to where to look to feel more comfortable with cookies (I
have Brad's book, it is a good start,
but I was hoping for an example that was more complex - unless I am over
complicating this by my un-easiness
with this "new" language of JavaScript and working with cookies)

TIA
