Are you sure you want to store it in cookies, and not something more durable? In addition to the obvious issues of users rejecting/ deleting cookies, you're limited to 20 per domain, an upper size limit of each cookie (4K), and the browser may limit the total number of cookies allowed across all sites. If storing the position is important, you may wish to put it in a db via Ajax calls.
Check the docs for functions to get an element's position.
