2 domains on one dedicated server

setting cookies on both from one site

[jamie]

hi,

our ecom site is on example.com. when the user enters from a link from example.de, i wish to set a cookie from example.com which i can read on example.de. i have tried:

setcookie('cart', $cookie, time()+86400, '.example.de');

but this doesn't seem to work. (i have all p3p policies in place).

can anyone suggest a reason?

many thanks

It is because

example.com

and

example.de

are two completely different domains.

thanks for clarity coopster :)

i had a complete blind spot about this but now realise, of course not.

hi

i just wanted to add to this:

using an iframe on the second domain, i can call the shopping cart script on the first domain and display the contents.

hope this might help someone in the future.

cheers
