Answer 1

For 1 minute, you can use:

var date = new Date();
date.setTime(date.getTime() + (60 * 1000));
$.cookie('username', username, { expires: date });  // expires after 1 minute

For 30 seconds, you can use:

var date = new Date();
date.setTime(date.getTime() + (30 * 1000));
$.cookie('username', username, { expires: date });  // expires after 30 second

Answer 2

var date = new Date();
date.setTime(date.getTime() + (30 * 1000)); //add 30s to current date-time 1s = 1000ms
$.cookie('username', username, { expires: date });  //set it expiry

Answer 3

You can Use as below for 1 minute and 30 seconds:

 var date = new Date();
 var minutes = 1.5;
 date.setTime(date.getTime() + (minutes * 60 * 1000));
 $.cookie('username', username, { expires: date });

//3.5* 60 * 1000 = 1 minute and 30 seconds

//For 30 Seconds

  var date = new Date();
 var minutes = 0.5;
 date.setTime(date.getTime() + (minutes * 60 * 1000));
 $.cookie('username', username, { expires: date });
