set cookie.path to "server relative" value. need just one cookie for whole site!

[micah1701]

I'm using mod rewrite to make friendly URLs on my site.
so the url

/information/blah

is really running a file in the root folder like: 

index.php?information=blah 

My problem is that I'm using a javascript cookie but every time someone clicks a link and the URL changes, it creates a new cookie instead of updating the current cookie.

What is the work around for this?
when other problems came up from using the mod rewrite, I found I could just use the "server relative" value of all of my links within the site (ie just ad a "/" before the path) and that fixed the problem.  But I'm having some trouble doing that in javascript for this cookie.

I tried:  document.cookie.path = "/";

didn't help.  Other thoughts?  Thanks!!!
