Code

function _favorites_save_favorite_cookie($values) {

  // the DB takes care of this with an auto increment value.
  // This is too much overhead in cookie storage, so
  // we will use an md5 hash as a unique ID.
  // The hash will be prefixed so on delete operations it is absolutely
  // clear whether to delete a cookie or a DB entry.
