// ATTENTION
//
// the path info in cookie is important. If there is no path, it will use the
// current level from which the cookie function is called. ie: canivet.com/ecard
// and will not be available for upper levels. It will cause duplication of
// cookies and add confusion depending on which one is applicable
// depending on the level where you are. In order to fix this, we specify / (root)
// as the path. Only one cookie name and value will be set and it will be available
// for all lower levels.
//
// That's the same story with the domain. If you want to avoid the same confusion 
// if your domain can be called some different way (canivet.com or www.canivet.com),
// using domain '.canivet.com' allows for one common cookie for any of these two
// domain names canivet.com and www.canivet.com
