cookies across virtual directories

[Mark]

Assume you have two virtual directories on the same web server and in the
same logical web site. One is at www.mywebsite.com/v1/ and the other is at
www.mywebsite.com/v2/. If I create a cookie in v1, is that cookie
accessible from v2? My hope is the answer is yes. Also, would the type of
cookie (file versus session based) impact this?

Thanks in advance.

set the cookie Domain to a common root for both sites.

Thanks. Your reply suggests that this is not default behavior? Just
confirming.

Thanks again.
