I'm literally displaying what is being compared before the comparison, so I would expect that I would see an extraneous colon. Also, by the time I get to the for loops, I've stuck the cookies in an array as well, so I'm comparing arrays.

So I tried two for loops, one for the cookies and the other for the array. Again finds one. I even set it up to display the two values via alert() before the comparison test. I see this: 'comparing <linksFTP> to <linksFTP>'
