I've always known that you can specify a domain when you set a cookie,
and for kicks I experimented with a test page setting a cookie for the
yahoo.com. Seems to me that browsers wouldn't allow this as it could
create any number of security problems. I tried the following code, and
the yahoo cookie did not get set, as I expected, and the
briandunning.com cookie did (that's my site). I made sure that my
browser's settings were set to allow all cookies, including those from
other sites.
<?php
setcookie('test', 'anything', time()+31536000, '/', '.yahoo.com');
setcookie('test', 'anything', time()+31536000, '/',
'.briandunning.com');
?>
Question: why didn't this work, is it supposed to work the way I was
trying, and if not, then what is that domain variable there for???
