[alicebot-general] Setting predicates to value of a variable

[Alan Haymes]

Is there any way that I can set a predicate to the value of variable within a
javascript statement?  I am experimenting with cookies so that I can welcome
back visitors by name in response to them saying "hi".  

I am able to set the cookie (set_cookie ("visitor")) when they tell me their
name by assigning their name to a variable within javascript (e.g. var
visitor = "<star/>" where say * = Fred) but although I can retrieve their
name back into another variable (e.g. var visitor = get_cookie ( "visitor"
)) I can not see how to get the value of "visitor" (Fred) back into
predicate "name" - any syntax I've tried e.g. <set
name="name"><visitor/></set> fails.

Any ideas anyone?
