Normally cookies are set by the server and stored on the client, but 
javascript can set a cookie independently of that:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document/cookie

I am not clear on what the 'id of the A tag' actually means.

Do you mean there is something like <a href=" blah.com" 
id="uttercrap">cobblers</a>  and you want to set a cookie to 'uttercrap'

The problem is how will you know which <a></a> element to refer to, 
unless you *already* know its id?
