Question : Javascript to set an attribute value

I need help setting an attribute value that will remain persistant.  I set the value in javascript but it does not stay persistant.  Can I use some kind of variable in the attribute that is set by the javascript?  I hope I can otherwise I will have to either duplicate the code in multiple pages or create a custom control.  I would rather get around those alternatives.  I am trying to set the class attribute when the link is clicked to change the color of the menu.

class="makeCurrent('Default')" was something that I have tried but it gives me problems

Answer : Javascript to set an attribute value

Not with the onclick trying to use the cookie function.  What does seem to work until the page posts back is the code below.  What I have not figured out is how to keep the tab selected with the background color changed.  The css for the tab menu is below also.
