I have been trying this for ages and I just don't know enough about the setcookie function to get it to work properly. Most I can do is keep the selected month, but in doing so, it makes it impossible to actually CHANGE the month using the next/previous month buttons. Can someone please help me with this? Here's the calendar code, it might give a clearer idea of where I should be putting the function.
Apologies for the wall of text.
