[jQuery] Re: Need a cookie to cap the frequency of my sliding div

[somnamblst]

Thanks. Are you saying I should remove this line
        $('#slidebar').html($('#hidebar').html());

So I have the following?

$(document).ready(function() {
        initSlideboxes();

        function initSlideboxes()
{
$('#slidebar').slideDown("normal");
setTimeout(function()
{
  $('#slidebar').slideUp(3000);


}, 5000);

        $('#slidebartrigger').click(function(){$
('#slidebar').slideToggle(); });

Because the 2 events slideDown & slideUp happen without user action, I
would like to cap frequency so a returning visitor does not have a div
they have already seen that day slide down with out being user
initiated. But if so desired I would like the user to have the ability
to toggle the div as much as they want.

$('#slidebar').slideDown("normal");
setTimeout(function()
{
  $('#slidebar').slideUp(3000);
