Ok, I have it set to where the popup comes up, then it sets the cookie... so it doesn't display the popup again...

however, I want it a different way... not sure on how to do it.

I need it to set a cookie once I hit the submit button

My current button is...

<input type=\'submit\' value=\'Yes, I want to vote!\' onclick=\'Modalbox.hide()\' />

Hello,
Let me understand this, you want to get the cookie made once the button gets hit. That means you would definitely have a form that you need posted. What you should do is to put a hidden variable and check it once the form gets submitted check that variable if it got set or not and if it does; have the cookie made.
Let me know if you understand.

It's a voting script. If you click yes, it redirects you. If you click no it doesn't closes the box that pops up.

This is the script... I need it to set the cookie on the button.
