More information please. – Raptorial

why would you store username and password as cookies? can't it be any other variables? – Jarib

@Reigel thats what i am asking suggestion how it can be done? Please suggest possible ways of doing it? – Pyrostat

it depends on what are you trying to achieve. I see you want to redirect to a page, but is it necessary for you to use username and password? username might be okay, but I doubt with password. why not something like username and logged ? logged would be a boolean with value depending if the user is logged or not. – Jarib

@Reigel logged holds a value True until the user logs out. Is that what you are trying to say? – Pyrostat

But what if the user faked the cookie to have value of True for logged. He can login without password. – Airframe

@Rohn this isn't an answer what i was looking for. I know this plugin but i want suggestions to implement "Remember Me" using this jquery cookie plugin. – Pyrostat

@Pandiya Chendur: I have added a tutorial to implement this. – Rohn

@Reigel i ve removed -1. But this answer uses password as cookie value. Is that secure? – Pyrostat

I'm not really sure about security. But why would I put that on the risk. Well, that tutorial is the way to go. Use other variables as you like. You can use password if you really want to. I just don't suggest it. logged holds a value True until the user logs out. is what i'm suggesting. – Jarib
