Whether or not there is any effective legislation requiring the uyse of cookie alerts is only part of the reason for wanting a solution for them within Website X5. Internet users are becoming very familiar with the appearance of such pop-ups, especially on sites run by established professional brands. Absence of a cookie pop-up makes a site look less professional. Something as simple as the Advertising Message pop-up would be perfect. Many of us are using X5 for ecommerce - a solution would be more than welcome.

The view that, because legislation is ineffective, one doesn't have to comply with it, is attractive, but sadly untrue.
