Justin,

Can I get to this page from the web?

Remember, you cannot control the domain name that the cookie writes to your
system.  Now as for why, I'm not sure I can help...

For example, I can only add a domain like "domain=vamanet.com", which would
allow all domains ending in vamanet.com to share the cookie, so
my.vamanet.com, users.vamanet.com, whatever.vamanet.com can all access the
cookie (it is also good to remember that this is overridden by the path=xxx
statement, so if you don't have that included it won't matter).  What I
cannot do is specify a domain that is not shared by the page writing the
cookie, so I cannot include "domain=ibm.com" in a vamanet.com webpage
because it breaks the rules.

As for your syntax error, you just need to reformat this a little...
remember you are building a string, so you need to add some quotations...

change this...
> function WriteCookie(name,value,expireDays) {
>    var expire = new Date();
>    expire.setTime (expire.getTime() + (expireDays * 24 * 3500000));
>    document.cookie = name + "=" + escape(value) +"; expires="
> + expire.toGMTString() + domain=reliatek.com;
> }

to this...
> function WriteCookie(name,value,expireDays) {
>    var expire = new Date();
>    expire.setTime (expire.getTime() + (expireDays * 24 * 3500000));
>    document.cookie = name + "=" + escape(value) +"; expires="
> + expire.toGMTString() +

";domain=reliatek.com;";

> }
