Usage

            // inside the DOM-ready function
            // a "cookie" object will be available in jQuery’s namespace
            // the object exposes 3 methods that you can use to write, read and delete cookies
            $(document).ready(function() {

                // create a session cookie (expires when the browser closes)
                $.cookie.write('cookie_name', 'cookie_value');

                // create a cookie that expires in 1 day
                $.cookie.write('cookie_name', 'cookie_value', 24 * 60 * 60);

                // read a cookie’s value
                // following the examples above, this should return "cookie_value"
                $.cookie.read('cookie_name');

                // the "read" method returns null if the cookie doesn’t exist
                $.cookie.read('non_existing_cookie_name');

                // delete the cookie
                $.cookie.destroy('cookie_name');

            });
