I create a cookie like so:

document.cookie="colour=red; expires=Thu, 31 Jan 2015 12:00:00 UTC; path=/todoPage";

In another section of my code I do:

console.log(document.cookie):

I would like to get the name/value info, instead my console prints a horribly long string value, ideas?

Try doing something like cookies = document.cookie.split(';'), and then parse with cookies[0]? – frogbandit Jan 14 '16 at 22:45
Is that what cookies[0] returns? Then try doing cookies[0][0] – frogbandit Jan 14 '16 at 22:54
