What about countries where there isn't a .com.xx .org.xx, etc hierarchy? Like .de, .hu, .tv, .nu, .cx and most of the other country domains?

And I do recall Mozilla asking 'The .com.au domain wants to set a cookie. Do you want to allow it?'

Maybe some browsers recognise the .com / .org .net, .co, etc domains as exceptions... dunno, don't really care either. Just curious.

No, you can't do that. You can set domain cookies for the 2nd level domain
if there is no country domain (eg. xyz.com), but if there is a country
domain, you can only set domain cookies for the 3rd level domain (eg.
xyz.com.au).

Thanks Ayudh,
I thought so but I had no way to test as I'm out of the office today and
tomorrow (and no, I don't have a CF server at home)

On a side note, it seems to me that you can set domain cookies for the
entire .com.au domain (at least in Mozilla); not that I endorse such
things...

In case anyone is interested, I have done some testing and can now
answer my own question. The answer is YES.

Is it possible to share session variables across 2 different domains?

The


documentation I've seen says sessions are application-specific,
client-specific and server-specific, but I've seen nothing that says

it's


domain-specific. Both domains are virtual servers on the same machine,

and


have the same CFAPPLICATION name and session parameters. Of course I

will


need to pass the CFID and CFTOKEN values in the URL, since cookies are
domain-specific.
