That's my current code so far - I think I've got all the AJAX right, but I don't know what to put in the PHP files except setcookie, perhaps?

Thanks.

Well, I'm trying to make this AJAX script keep persistence for a collapse div script, I think I've got the AJAX all done, but I can't seem to figure out what to put in the PHP files.

checkcookie.php should check if cookies exists, and if so, outputs the value of the cookie to the AJAX script.
hide.php is for the hide cookie
show.php is for the show cookie

Any suggestions?

Bump.

Anyone got any ideas on what to put in the PHP files?

[neoaddict]

Sorry for the bumps. :(

Does anyone know what I can put in the PHP files?

I'm having problems figuring out what to put in them.

checkcookie.php should check for the cookie, if exists, display div accordingly and set output to script, if not, send do nothing output to script.

Don't know how to send output from a PHP file to an AJAX script.
