Scripting Properties

Property	Type	Access	Comments
alinkColor	variant	Read/Write	Sets or retrieves the active link color in the specified document.
bgColor	variant	Read/Write	Sets or retrieves the background color of the specified document. See BGCOLOR property for the format and possible color names. Note: The color values returned by the browser are not prefixed with a ‘#’.

cookie	string	Read/Write	Sets or retrieves the string value of a cookie. sCookie is the string that specifies or receives the name=value pairs, plus any of the following values: `expires=date;` Setting no expiration date on a cookie causes it to expire when the browser closes. If you set an expiration date in the future, the cookie is saved across browser sessions. If you set an expiration date in the past, the cookie is deleted. Use GMT format to specify the date. `domain=domainname;` Setting the domain of the cookie allows pages on a domain made up of more than one server to share cookie information. `path=path;` Setting a path for the cookie allows the current document to share cookie information with other pages within the same domain—that is, if the path is set to /thispathname, all pages in /thispathname and all pages in subfolders of /thispathname can access the same cookie information. `secure;` Setting a cookie as secure; means the stored cookie information can be accessed only from a secure environment.
