How do delete elements from page based on cookie value?

I want to create a button on my webpage, which when clicked, sets a cookie with a specified value. The cookie should be valid for the entire domain, all its directories and sub-domains.
The code I'm using now is this:
function setCookie(cname, cvalue, exdays)
{
var d = new Date();
d.setTime(d.getTime() + (365*24*60*60*1000));
var expires = "expires="+ d.toUTCString();
document.cookie = cname + "name1" + cvalue + "value1" + expires + ";path=/";
}
Then, once the cookie and its value is set, I want that button to get deleted from the page. Also, next time the page loads, I want to check if the cookie and the value exists and if not, show the button or else, delete the button.
The button in context has an id: delete
I'm using this code to check for cookie and its value:
function getCookie(name1)
{
var name = name1 + "value1";
var decodedCookie = decodeURIComponent(document.cookie);
var ca = decodedCookie.split(';');
for(var i = 0; i <ca.length; i++)
{
var c = ca[i];
while (c.charAt(0) == ' ')
{
c = c.substring(1);
}
if (c.indexOf(name) == 0)
{
return c.substring(name.length, c.length);
}
}
return "";
}
I've found these codes from here: https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_cookies.asp
I'm going to use this code to delete the element if the cookie and its value is present:
function removeElement(elementId)
{
var element = document.getElementById(delete);
element.parentNode.removeChild(element);
}
I've taken this code from here: https://www.abeautifulsite.net/adding-and-removing-elements-on-the-fly-using-javascript
I don't know how to link those 2 fuctions to carry out the required action.

Here is a working solution for you. Take a look at the comments inside the Code.
Are u new to JS? in this case you should take a look at codecademy. Its for free and you will learn the basics very fast.
Note that SO does not allow you to check or set cookies. For that reason the runable code below will cause an error. Here is a working fiddle.
if (getCookie('myCookie')) removeElement('myButton'); // remove if cookie is set
if (document.getElementById('myButton')) document.getElementById('myButton').onclick = function() { // bind function to clickevent
setCookie('myCookie', 'myValue', 1); // set cookie
removeElement('myButton'); // remove button
}
function setCookie(cname, cvalue, exdays) { // your setCookie Funktion
var d = new Date();
d.setTime(d.getTime() + (365 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000));
var expires = "expires=" + d.toUTCString();
document.cookie = cname + '=' + cvalue + '; '+ expires + ";path=/"; // reset to w3schools solution
}
function getCookie(name) { // your getCookie Funktion
// removed 'var name = ...' because you wont find your cookie if you changing the name here
var decodedCookie = decodeURIComponent(document.cookie);
var ca = decodedCookie.split(';');
for (var i = 0; i < ca.length; i++) {
var c = ca[i];
while (c.charAt(0) == ' ') {
c = c.substring(1);
}
if (c.indexOf(name) == 0) {
return c.substring(name.length, c.length);
}
}
return "";
}
function removeElement(elementId) { // your removeElement Function
var element = document.getElementById(elementId); // variable delete was undefined, if your buttons id was delete you had to write it in ''
element.parentNode.removeChild(element);
}
<button type="button" id="myButton">
click me
</button>

Going by your requirements you just want to delete a specific button if the cookie is present.
In this case you will need to do 2 things.
Call the getCookie and based on the return value call the removeElement at the end of the setCookie method.
Note: I am assuming your setCookie method is synchronous.
Load the button by default and do the same as Step 1 once the page is loaded.
To summarize, your mrthods should look like this:
setCookie method:
function setCookie(cname, cvalue, exdays){
var d = new Date();
d.setTime(d.getTime() + (365*24*60*60*1000));
var expires = "expires="+ d.toUTCString();
document.cookie = cname + "name1" + cvalue + "value1" + expires + ";path=/";
if(getCookie(cname)) removeElement('delete');
}
After Loading the document:
document.onload = ()=>{
if(getCookie(cname)) removeElement('delete');
}

Cookies disappear after setting them in Microsoft edge

I'm trying to set cookies that are permanent in Microsoft edge. They last only until I close the browser. Yes I have cookies enabled. Here is some code I found from a while ago:
var cookieHandler = {
setCookie : function(name, value, days, time)
{
var expires = "";
if(days)
{
var date = new Date();
date.setTime(date.getTime() + (time || (days * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)));
expires = "; expires=" + date.toUTCString();
}
document.cookie = name + "=" + (value || "") + expires + "; path=/";
},
getCookie : function(name)
{
var nameEQ = name + "=";
var ca = document.cookie.split(';');
for(var i = 0; i < ca.length; i++)
{
var c = ca[i];
while(c.charAt(0) == ' ')
{
c = c.substring(1, c.length);
}
if(c.indexOf(nameEQ) == 0)
{
return c.substring(nameEQ.length, c.length);
}
}
return null;
},
eraseCookie : function(name)
{
document.cookie = name + '=; Max-Age=-99999999999;';
}
};
Yeah when I reopen the browser my cookies are gone. Does anyone have working code for cookies in Microsoft edge?
Edit:
I'm using the file:/// origin.

Javascript: Getting cookie value to record user's visit

This script keeps track of the number of times a surfer has visited page, and show the surfer of this info. Also with buttons to allow him/her to reset info. When the "Revisit Page" button is clicked, it refresh the page. Get the message according to the number of visits and print it. When the "Reset Counter" is clicked, it set the counter to zero and refresh the page. I did coding almost but it's not working. Can anyone tell me what's wrong in my code ?
code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>cookie</title>
<style>
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="myDiv" id="div">
<p id="txt"> </p> </div>

<CENTER>
<INPUT NAME="update" TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Revisit Page" OnClick="history.go(0)" id="revisit">
<INPUT NAME="reset" TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Reset Counter" OnClick="ResetCounts()" id="reset">
</CENTER>
</FORM>
<script>
function getCookieVal (offset) {
var endstr = document.cookie.indexOf (";", offset);
if (endstr == -1)
endstr = document.cookie.length;
return unescape(document.cookie.substring(offset, endstr));
}
function setCookie(cname, cvalue, exdays) {
var d = new Date();
d.setTime(d.getTime() + (exdays*24*60*60*1000));
var expires = "expires="+ d.toUTCString();
document.cookie = cname + "=" + cvalue + ";" + expires + ";path=/";
}
function getCookie(cname) {

if (c.indexOf(name) == 0) {
return c.substring(name.length, c.length);
}
}
return "";
}
function DisplayInfo() {
var expdate = new Date();
var visit;
expdate.setTime(expdate.getTime() + (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000 * 365));
if(!(visit = GetCookie("visit")))

visit++;
SetCookie("visit", visit, expdate, "/", null, false);
var message;

function ResetCounts() {
var expdate = new Date();
expdate.setTime(expdate.getTime() + (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000 * 365));
visit = 0;
SetCookie("visit", visit, expdate , "/", null, false);
history.go(0);
}
window.onload=DisplayInfo
</script>
</body>
</html>

Try these two functions instead - they work on my eCommerce site.
function setCookie(cname, cvalue, exdays) {
var d = new Date();
d.setTime(d.getTime() + (exdays*24*60*60*1000));
var expires = "expires="+ d.toUTCString();
document.cookie = cname + "=" + cvalue + ";" + expires + ";path=/";
}
function getCookie(cname) {
var name = cname + "=";
var decodedCookie = decodeURIComponent(document.cookie);
var ca = decodedCookie.split(';');
for(var i = 0; i <ca.length; i++) {
var c = ca[i];
while (c.charAt(0) == ' ') {
c = c.substring(1);
}
if (c.indexOf(name) == 0) {
return c.substring(name.length, c.length);
}
}
return "";
}
Also make sure your own browser accepts cookies and isn't purging them while you're running tests.

Cookie reset time on a Newsletter popup

I have difficulties setting the cookie time to reset after 1 week. Does anyone know how to achieve this? I am using the following code in my Shopify theme. I can now only select to show it once or show it always in my theme settings.
function setCookie(cname, cvalue, exdays) {
var d = new Date();
d.setTime(d.getTime() + (exdays*24*60*60*1000));
var expires = "expires="+d.toUTCString();
document.cookie = cname + "=" + cvalue + "; " + expires;
}
function getCookie(cname) {
var name = cname + "=";
var ca = document.cookie.split(';');
for(var i=0; i<ca.length; i++) {
var c = ca[i];
while (c.charAt(0)==' ') c = c.substring(1);
if (c.indexOf(name) == 0) return c.substring(name.length,c.length);
}
return "";
}
Looking forward to your replies. Cheers!

Try something like this? Takes the minutes in a week. multiplies it by 60 to turn it into seconds.
var d = new Date();
var minutes = 10080;
d.setTime(d.getTime() + (minutes * 60));
var expires = "expires="+d.toUTCString();
document.cookie = cname + "=" + cvalue + "; " + expires;
