Cookies across domains

[Keon]

Hoi

Is it possible to use cookies between different domains?

For my site I use 2 domains;
the first for my global site with ASP en HTML
the second is for my forum located on "hyperboards" a free forum domain
On de second domain i don't have any control and i can't put any new
webpages on that site.

But I want to use the cookie of my forum on my global site.

Can someone tell me how i must do this.

greeting
Keon

No, this is prevented for security / privacy reasons.

You could use a tracking image, that sets cookies across both. You include
this "image"on both your site. The image could be served by an ASP page,
which also sets cookies

<img src="somesite/somepage.asp">

Other than that, you can not share cookies across sites, unless they have
the same parent site e.g. forums.mysite.com and other.mypages.com.
