keep personal cookies

[mta]

It seems CC only lists cookies put on your PC by websites or Flash plugins.

What about personally created cookies?

How does one keep them from being cleaned?

 

I have a javascript created cookie that keeps user generated info based on HTML buttons on my home page so it is available across Firefox browser sessions but there seems no way for CC to add it to the Cookies to Keep list since it isn't shown in the Cookies on Computer list.

 

But I fully admit I could be missing something as I've always used FF in private mode but now would like this cookie kept...

Hi,

 

Which browser are you using? Also, have you thought about looking outside of CC at a webcache manager instead? Allowing you to manage the file rather than just delete it?

 

PS...by managing the file I mean managing your history/cookies

I almost solely use Firefox.

 

I spent many hours playing around with FF and cookie creation, even started storing my necessary data in DOM files but it all got way messier than I needed, plus wasn't working anyway.

 

Long story short, I've re-coded my HTML home page to cater for FF and CC's short-comings.  Also due to recent releases of FF, if used in Private Mode, it no longer shows the downloads in a separate window but in a new tab instead, so I don't use Private Mode any more and just get FF to erase all data upon exiting.
