Is it doable to use javascript functions to set a cookie parameter and call the function if the cookie is detected? heres the javascript that changes the background attribute. ```auto adasdasdasdasada
adasdasdasdasada
adasdasdasdasada ``` Can I store this data in acookie so when the user goes to the next page it automatically remembers the colour they have selected?? if this makes any sense
