+<h1>Cookie Helper</h1>
+
+<p>The Cookie Helper file contains functions that assist in working with cookies.</p>
+
+
+<h2>Loading this Helper</h2>
+
+<p>This helper is loaded using the following code:</p>
+<code>$this->load->helper('cookie');</code>
+
+<p>The following functions are available:</p>
+
+<h2>set_cookie()</h2>
+
+<p>Sets a cookie containing the values you specify. There are two ways to pass information this function so that a cookie can be set:
+Arrray Method, and Discreet Parameters:</p>
+
+<h4>Array Method</h4>
+
+<p>Using this method, an associative array is passed to the first parameter:</p>
+
+<code>$cookie = array(<br />
+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;'name'&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;=> 'The Cookie Name',<br />
+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;'value'&nbsp;&nbsp;=> 'The Value',<br />
+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;'expire' => '86500',<br />
+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;'domain' => '.some-domain.com',<br />
+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;'path'&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;=> '/',<br />
+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;'prefix' => 'myprefix_',<br />
+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;);<br />
+<br />
+set_cookie($cookie);
+</code>
+
+<p><strong>Notes:</strong></p>
+
+<p>Only the name and value are required.</p>
+
+<p>The expiration is set in <strong>seconds</strong>, which will be added to the current time. Do not include the time, but rather only the
+number of seconds from <em>now</em> that you wish the cookie to be valid. If the expiration is set to
+zero the cookie will only last as long as the browser is open.</p>
+<p>To delete a cookie set it with the expiration blank.</p>
+<p>For site-wide cookies regardless of how your site is requested, add your URL to the <strong>domain</strong> starting with a period, like this: .your-domain.com</p>
+<p>The path is usually not needed since the function sets a root path.</p>
+<p>The prefix is only needed if you need to avoid name collisions with other identically named cookies for your server.</p>
+
+<h4>Discreet Parameters</h4>
+
+<p>If you prefer, you can set the cookie by passing data using individual parameters:</p>
+
+<code>set_cookie($name, $value, $expire, $domain, $path, $prefix);</code>
