Hi all,

Is there a way in RewriteEngine to a fool a coockie to read the contents of
another domain whilst you're on another.

etc..

I have not really considered the details of what you want to do, but in the principle I would say it cannot be done, for security reasons. If one site could set a cookie for any other site, then the site www.very-bad-guys.com could set a cookie that the browser would send later to the site www.all-angels.com, with whatever consequences.

However, two websites member of the same upper-level domain can set cookies valid for both, such as if one site is www.company.com and the other is anotherserver.company.com, they they both can set a cookie for ".company.com", and the browser would send this cookie along with any request to any one of the two sites.
