Besides the non-conforming <meta> property, you would need either simple JavaScript or PHP, to set and read from cookies. This is a simple way to do it in PHP, although PHP requires some sort of server environment (Apache for example) to run and execute scripts.

<?php

setcookie("name", "Maidul Islam");
echo "<p>Your name is " . $_COOKIE['name'] . ".</p>";

setcookie("date", "2018-01-21");
echo "<p>The date is " . $_COOKIE['date'] . ".</p>";

?>

You can use Javascript to create / set cookie, such as

<script>
document.cookie = "username=Maidul Islam";
</script>

It is not possible to create / set session through HTML or Javascript.
