What are cookies used for on the PLANTS Web site?

Frequently Asked Questions | USDA PLANTS
We use cookies on the PLANTS Name Search and the Distribution Update. On the PLANTS Name Search at the top left of every page, the name type and the name you enter are stored as cookies. This allows you to move between the different sections of PLANTS and see the last name you entered in the Name Search at the top of every page. On the Distribution Update, a cookie sets a unique identifier for you that is used as you submit data and view reports.

How are style sheets used on the PLANTS Web site?

Frequently Asked Questions | USDA PLANTS
We use Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) to format the site consistently with our fonts, font sizes, and colors. For best results your browser must recognize style sheets and be set to accept our style sheet in particular. This will normally be the case if you are using Internet Explorer. The PLANTS site may be viewed without style sheets enabled or with your own style sheets, but there will be some font, color, and spacing differences.

How is scripting used on the PLANTS Web site?

Frequently Asked Questions | USDA PLANTS
The PLANTS Web site uses JavaScript for greater versatility. For example, we use it for some form validation, to display help screens, and to maintain your name searches from page to page. In addition, the Distribution Update requires JavaScript. Except for the Distribution Update module, the site will still be useable if scripting is turned off, but expect some decreased functionality.
