Hi R. Vince,
Cookies are set PER DOMAIN and possible even with a PATH in that domain.
That means that a cookie set at:
http://www.example.com cannot be retrieved by:
http://www.yetanotherdomain.com
By not retrieving I mean:
1) Is NEVER send to the server
2) Cannot be queried by Javascript.
So in effect a cookie from another domain is effectively not there.
This has been like this since... Netscape2 if memory serves me well.
Regards,
Erwin Moller
