• 3 @SOliver, w3schools? Seriously? There are also w3fools – Darin Dimitrov Commented Feb 13, 2012 at 13:30
• 1 @DarinDimitrov: Yes seriously; they provide a adequate solution to the OP's problem. w3fools are claiming that there is a lot of questionable content on the site, not that every item on it is wrong. – CBusBus Commented Feb 13, 2012 at 13:45
• I agree with SOliver here. Most of W3Schools is good info, but there are quite a few bad ones. And the bulk of the "bad ones" are very nitpicky. – Darthg8r Commented Feb 13, 2012 at 14:46

Use this jquery jquery-cookies.js which make it easy:

var cookiedata = $.cookie('top_navi_link');

<script type="text/javascript">
    alert(document.cookie);
</script>

There are also some jquery plugins such as jquery.cookie which might simplify this task.
