communicate between iframes on different subdomains

hey,
Is there a way to communicate between iframes on different subdomains?
e.g. from one.dot.com to two.dot.com? there is a security access
restriction passing javascript commands between subdomains that we've
run into.

before the first attempt of cross-subdomain communication.

AFAIK only for Internet Explorer.
Please quote properly the post you are commenting on. "AFAIK..."
sentense was the beginning of the solution I proposed and w/o it the
sentense has no sense.
If you know other UA's implementing IE's document.domain mechanics that
would be helpful to know to everyone. I'm not denying the possibility
of these UA's, I simply don't know of them (AFAIK - As Far As I Know)

My response was directed - directly - at your "AFAIK". document.domain
is a very well known about issue in this group. A simple search for it
will lead you here:

So, your AFAIK doesn't mean a whole lot and leads to "why we don't place
of whole lot of faith in what you know" as your record speaks for itself.
Sure it does, just not to you.
See above.

But at that time it was IE-only extension.
This is a useful link and this is really all you had to post on the
first plase instead of playing some games of a kind "I know something
cool but I will not tell anyone". For a technical newsgroup it is not
an appropriate style IMHO.

As it's listed on Mozilla Projects section, it is also would be useful
to find if it's also documented on MDC, if it was ever implemented and
if implemented then from what version.

Also if Mozilla went for adopting this IE feature then it could be
expected that some other UA did the same.

Does anyone have some comparison stidies done on document.domain
support?

javascript:alert(document.domain);

in the URL bar of

IE 5
IE 6
Safari 2
Opera 6
Opera 9
Netscape 6
Firefox 1.5

All these browser reported the correct domain.

I have also used document.domain to allow cross subdomain Ajax on a
site with 10,000 users and no one has complained so a variety of
popular browser can use document.domain as expected.
