   Hi,

   I've recently implemented a custom comment field using the following code:

   global $extra_fields;
   $extra_fields = array(
   	'gamertag' => '<label for="gamertag">Gamertag</label><input id="gamertag" name="gamertag" type="text" value="" size="30">'
   );
   
   add_filter('comment_form_default_fields','extra_fields');
   
   function extra_fields($fields) {
   	foreach($extra_fields as $extra_field_key => $extra_fields_html){
   		$fields[$mm_extra_field_key] = $mm_extra_fields_html;
   	}
   
   	return $fields;
   }

   This adds the field like a charm, however I would also like the value provided to be saved to the cookie WordPress writes when you post a comment. That way, people don't always have to provide the custom field each time they post a comment. It's quite confusing for a user to see that his name and e-mail are remembered, but the custom field isn't. Does anyone have a solution on how to do this?

   Thanks in advance!
