asp.net - Read cookie in javascript

Question

This is my asp code, can be the same done in Javascript?

HttpCookie cookie = this.Request.Cookies["Votes"];
if (cookie != null)
    if (cookie.Values.Get(id.ToString()) == "true")  return true;
return false;

Answer 1

function readTheCookie(the_info)
{
// load the cookie into a variable and unescape it

 var the_cookie = document.cookie;
 var the_cookie = unescape(the_cookie);

// separate the values from the cookie name

 var broken_cookie = the_cookie.split("some parameter"); // parameter depends on how the cookie is stored
 var the_values = broken_cookie["some index"]; // index of the value that you want
}

These are all the parts of reading a cookie, you can use this snippet to achieve what you want.
