How can I list all cookies for the current page with Javascript?

You can list cookies for current domain:

function listCookies() {
    var theCookies = document.cookie.split(';');
    var aString = '';
    for (var i = 1 ; i <= theCookies.length; i++) {
        aString += i + ' ' + theCookies[i-1] + "\n";
    }
    return aString;
}

But you cannot list cookies for other domains for security reasons


var x = document.cookie; 
window.alert(x);

This displays every cookie the current site has access to. If you for example have created two cookies "username=Frankenstein" and "username=Dracula", these two lines of code will display "username=Frankenstein; username=Dracula". However, information such as expiry date will not be shown.


Many people have already mentioned that document.cookie gets you all the cookies (except http-only ones).

I'll just add a snippet to keep up with the times.

document.cookie.split(';').reduce((cookies, cookie) => {
  const [ name, value ] = cookie.split('=').map(c => c.trim());
  cookies[name] = value;
  return cookies;
}, {});

The snippet will return an object with cookie names as the keys with cookie values as the values.

Slightly different syntax:

document.cookie.split(';').reduce((cookies, cookie) => {
  const [ name, value ] = cookie.split('=').map(c => c.trim());
  return { ...cookies, [name]: value };
}, {});
