// set the screen position where the popup should appear

var windowX = 260 // from left
var windowY = 100 // from top
var windowX = (screen.width/2)-(windowW/2);
var windowY = (screen.height/2)-(windowH/2);

// set the url of the page to show in the popup

var urlPop = "resolution.htm"

// set the title of the page

var title = "Resolution"

// set this to true if the popup should close
// upon leaving the launching page; else, false

var autoclose = true

// ============================
// do not edit below this line
// ============================

s = "width="+windowW+",height="+windowH;
var beIE = document.all?true:false

function openFrameless(){
if (beIE){
NFW = window.open("","popFrameless","fullscreen,"+s)
NFW.blur()
window.focus()
NFW.resizeTo(windowW,windowH)
NFW.moveTo(windowX,windowY)
var frameString=""+
"<html>"+

Here is a link to a script from JavaScriptkit's Free Script Section that does just what you want using cookies.

You should be able to adapt it to your needs. Also if you check out the tutorials section I believe there is one on Cookies. Good Luck.
