         * @param {String} name The name of the cookie to set.
         * @param {Mixed} value The value to set for the cookie.
         * @param {Object} expires (Optional) Specify an expiration date the
         * cookie is to persist until.  Note that the specified Date object will
         * be converted to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
         * @param {String} path (Optional) Setting a path on the cookie restricts
         * access to pages that match that path. Defaults to all pages ('/').
         * @param {String} domain (Optional) Setting a domain restricts access to
         * pages on a given domain (typically used to allow cookie access across
         * subdomains). For example, "extjs.com" will create a cookie that can be
         * accessed from any subdomain of extjs.com, including www.extjs.com,
         * support.extjs.com, etc.
         * @param {Boolean} secure (Optional) Specify true to indicate that the cookie
         * should only be accessible via SSL on a page using the HTTPS protocol.
         * Defaults to false. Note that this will only work if the page
         * calling this code uses the HTTPS protocol, otherwise the cookie will be
         * created with default options.
