How to save some values in a cookie for future use? [#656102]

I want to save values from some of the fields in a cookie so that when next time user who uses the same computer opens the same form he/she doesn't have to fill those fields again. For example his name and address would already be there, prefilled from the the information that was saved in a cookie during first submission. Any suggestions on best way to do this in webform?

If the user is logged in, you can use %profile[profile_*] tokens as the default value for fields and prepopulate those fields. You might also use %get[*] to pull values from the URL. %cookie values will not work for anonymous users however, since it will not work with the Drupal caching system (or it would actually show a user's data to other users).
