Hi Matthias, Hmm, I should never do things when I’m tired.
I do the following all the time with LC session variables and they do use the quotes. put $_SESSION["userid"] into Varuserid Yet the following works nicely and no array is needed: <script type="text/javascript"> var amount1 = 23; var amount2 = 56; var total = amount1 + amount2; document.cookie = "AdditionResult=" + total + ";" </script> <?lc put $_cookie[AdditionResult] into VarAdditionResult put "<br><br>" put "VarAdditionResult = " & VarAdditionResult put "<br><br>" ?> So $_cookie[AdditionResult] and $_cookie[“AdditionResult”] are different variables? I will have to play around some more. I’m happy that at least something is working now. I just need to know why.
