- Define the needed cookie
- Define the JavaScript-Code that is proposed to be added to the page if this cookie is enabled
- If you wish to show disabled elements(e.g. represented by a frosted glas effect) like googleMaps, Twitter Time etc. you can define an appropriate image and a short text(e.g. "click here to enable me")
