setcookie for different domain

[Anon]

Is it possible to set a cookie for a different domain than the one you are currently on? The documentation makes it look like I should be able to, but I haven't been able to get it to work.

Example:

I'm on first.com and issue the commands:

setcookie('color','blue',(time()+2592000),'/','first.com',0);

setcookie('color','blue',(time()+2592000),'/','second.com',0);

This sets a cookie on my computer for first.com perfectly, but does not set anything for second.com.

Is it possible to do this? I missing something in my syntax? Do I have to get my host to reconfigure some PHP option?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Patrick

i didn't think you could set/read a cookie from a different domain. something about security...
