[Pro] Too Cookie or Not to Cookie, THAT is the Question

On my top page, within the DOM Loaded Observer button of Protaculous 2, I am using the following code:

var message_box = $('legaleze').setStyle('z-index: 1000');
$$('body').first().insert(message_box.remove());
var jar = new CookieJar({expires: ''});
//you can also set expires to any number of seconds
if(!jar.get('hide_message')){
  message_box.show().observe(
    'click',
    function(evt){
      jar.put('hide_message',true);
      this.hide();
    }
  );
};

I tried using the same code on my new page, but again, if I go to my top page FIRST and then to my new page, the popover content of my top page displays, but the popover content of my new page won’t display. And like I said before, if I relaunch the browser and go directly to my new page, it’s popover content displays fine. And if I then go to my top page, it’s popover content displays fine. Why in the world is it that when I go to my top page FIRST, then my new page won’t display it’s popover content?

I tried changing the var name but that didn’t do anything. I tried changing CookieJar to CookieJar2, but that didn’t do anything. I renamed my popover content from “legaleze” to “ttt” and then updated the code accordingly, but that didn’t fix the problem either.

Again, I want independent control over the popover content on my TOP page and my NEW page. It shouldn’t matter which page I display first. Whatever page I choose should show its popover content ONCE PER SESSION, which usually means I need to relaunch the browser to see it display again. Displaying one page’s popover content should never prevent another page’s popover content from displaying.

Your thoughts?
