you DON'T want that! It's a major security risk cause sometimes userid's
passwords or session-keys are stored in cookies.
You don't wnat shared cookies for precisely this reason.

true and the rest could probably be translated to php-code.
You need however a server that is more a webserver/proxy that translations
the javascript to html/php code.
Any dynamic menu's can be used this way as well.
However, this is a big thing and I'm not entirely sure it's at all
possible.
100% compattiblity will never be reached cause too much things change
directly depending on user-changes in i.e. forms or are dynamically
updated.
