HTML extension panel: save the settings in a 'cookies'

[o-marat]

HTML/CSS/JS extension panel:

Is it possible to save the panel settings in a 'cookies', as in a standard web browser?

If this is possible, how?

Thanks!

The version of the OS and Illustrator: Illustrator CС/2015x64, OS Win8.1x64

The guide "USING THE ADOBE EXTENSION SDK" says that "cookies" are stored here:

"CEP 4.2 supports persistent cookies stored in the user's file system:

In Windows: C: \ Users \ <user> \ AppData \ Local \ Temp \ cep_cookies "

Is this true for CEP5 / 6?

How to write and how to read out the information?

Method document.cookies = 'VasyaPupkin' does not work. Why is that?

Maybe I'm in the wrong section posted topic.

Request to moderators: transfer, please subject to the correct partition (say, Illustrator Scripting).

Thanks!

The CC2014 can't neither record nor considered a "cookie".

But this function is works fine in CC 2015 Illustrator:

    function setCookie ( name, value, options /*expires,path,domain,secure*/ ) {
      options = options || {};

      var expires = options.expires;

      if ( typeof expires == "number" && expires ) {
        var d = new Date ();
        d.setTime ( d.getTime () + expires * 1000 );
        expires = options.expires = d;
      }
      if ( expires && expires.toUTCString ) {
        options.expires = expires.toUTCString ();
      }

      value = encodeURIComponent ( value );

      var updatedCookie = name + "=" + value;

      for ( var propName in options ) {
        updatedCookie += "; " + propName;
        var propValue = options[ propName ];
        if ( propValue !== true ) {
          updatedCookie += "=" + propValue;
        }
      }
      document.cookie = updatedCookie;
    }

Does this mean that the version CC2014 "cookie" does not work as it should?

Can I do something wrong?

Instead of "cookies" is better to use Storage object.

It is much more convenient and works in any version of CC-Illustrator.

Maybe this topic is in the wrong section.
