I'm trying to achieve the same thing so if anybody managed to get this
working some help would be highly appreciated. 

I've created a single column sidebar with portlets based on 
http://ui.jquery.com/demos/sortable/#portlets

For the cookie I then adapted the code from this tutorial
http://www.shopdev.co.uk/blog/sortable-lists-using-jquery-ui/

So far I've got a working sidebar which remembers the positions of the
portlets, however it does not remember whether or not they are expanded or
collapsed. 

I know I need to store the state of each element as well as the order in the
cookie but since I only started with jQuery a couple of days ago so I'm
pretty clueless about how to create the array(s) to do so. 

Is is possible to store value pairs and then retrieve them effectively from
a cookie? E.g. item-1, open, item-2, closed, item-3, open. If so how do I
write the code to store it in the cookie and then retrieve it correctly. 

I guess I could set a new cookie for each portlet everytime the click
function for the minimise or expand is called however that isn't exactly an
elegant solution.
