I can't query a cookie from one site to another - right?

Xam
Hi

Just to confirm, if I create a cookie via one of my web sites, I can't call
and query that cookie from a different site can I?

I want to keep checking the state between a http site and a https site that
both need to work together and at the moment I have to post the relevant
session id between the sites for my background DB to keep track, but I just
had a thought - can I use a generic cookie between the sites?

I would have thought that this wasn't possible between sites with 2
different URLs, but I just wanted to check.

Thank you

Yes, you are correct. Otherwise, I'd make a page that stole people's Paypal
password. Okay, not really, but...

Hello, I just ran into an interesting problem with cookies while using PHP 4 and Mozilla 1.6. Basically, I have been using PHP on a site called: foo.bar.net?script.php Within that script I call setcookie() and manipulate cookie variable $_COOKIE. All works fine

Greetings, Is it possible to set a cookie to die if the user leaves my site *within the current session*? I'm pretty sure the answer is "no", I just need some confirmation. Of course, if the answer is "yes", any pointers to documentation will be gratefully accepted.

Hello everyone, I have been trying to write a Python script to access a Web site. I'm currently having a problem completing my script because the contents I would like to access in the Web site is a dynamic content and it is generated based on the Cookie contents which are set in another page. url-a (setting Cookies) url-b (dynamic content based on the Cookie value)

Hi! From what I understand cookies could be persisted or in-memory. I need to set second one... This code: Response.Cookies.Value = Server.UrlEncode(phpC); Response.Cookies.Path = "/"; Response.Cookies.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(1);

I have a feature that is hosted on a different domain from the primary one in a frame, and need to retain values in a cookie. example: A web page at one.com contains a frame which has a page hosted at two.com If I view the frameset from one.com in Firefox, all works well with the content from two.com. But if trying to view this using IE (with standard security settings), the cookie set by two.com is not accessible.

Hello, I'm having trouble getting MSIE 6.0 (running on XP SP2) to accept a cookie which works fine in both Firefox and wget. The web server is Boa 0.94.13 (a small embedded server) using PHP 4.3.10 for CGI. Even with the lowest security settings in MSIE there is no cookie acceptance, and no "Cookie:" HTTP header is being sent back by MSIE. This is the php code for a fairly minimal testcase:

This site was working: http://www.thesecondroad.org/ Now I'm told people are unable to create new accounts or log in. One theory: It seems that cookies are not being set. Our beta testers missed this bug, because the code was working at some point, and so cookies got set to the computers of the beta testers. I have no problem logging in, nor does anyone on my team have any trouble.

Hi all, Is there an easier way to handle that? I used Javascript to handle this when our two domains are hosted on two different servers(on different networks) and our search engine marketing people don't like the javascript links since they think the links are not favorable to a search robot.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
