You use null to see if it has a value. obviously its value is null, so it
will display "null"
Your code
if(getCookie('yourname') != " null ")
{
document.write(getCookie('yourname'));
}
will look for " null " where its value may be "null", so it wont work.
try something like
if (typeof getCookie("yourname") != "undefined")
{
if(getCookie("yourname").replace(/[ ]/g,"") != "null" ||
getCookie("yourname").replace(/[ ]/g,"") != "")
{document.write(getCookie('yourname'));}
else
{document.write("Cookie was there but its blank or its value is
null");}
}
else
{document.write("Cookie was not there");}

{
document.write(getCookie('yourname'));
