Show HE: I did it all for the cookie - jQuery plugin for new UK cookie legislation

A quick jquery plugin I knocked up to present a little dialog box at bottom right of the page to inform users that the site is using cookies and get consent from the users to use cookies. The plugin is there really to ease the transition into the new UK cookie legislation (http://www.ico.gov.uk/for_organisations/privacy_and_electronic_communications/the_guide/cookies.aspx)

Awesome! I wonder if the same could be done to get users of old browsers to be alerted to that fact and given a choice to download from a choice of modern browsers?

@rayhanrafiq check out http://browser-update.org/ - seems to do what you're suggesting!
