Note: If setting the path to “current”, you must also define that when removing the cookie.

$.dough("cookieName", "remove", { path: "current" });

Example cookie has a name of “cookieName”, a value of “cookieValue”, will expire in 1 year, have path of current page, domain will be autodetected and is set to secure for a use under https://.

That will return ‘someValue’

• expires: Days ’til cookie expires
• path: Default is root ‘/’, set to ‘current’ to use the path of current page
• domain: Auto detect and set domain with subdomain prefix
• secure: Set to true if you’re using https://
