Note Submitter: geoff at spacevs dot n0spm dot com ---- I had two sites for the same domain under different names that I wanted the cookie to be maintained between: forum.* www.* Because forum is running a phpbb2 forum, I did not want to modify the forum code to set the domain in the cookie, so to override the default behaviour of using the entire domain name, I wrote the following code and pre-pended it to the output using the php_auto_prepend setting. <?PHP $domain = 'example.com'; function fix_cookies($data) { global $domain; foreach(headers_list() as $value) { list($name, $value) = split(': ', $value, 2); if ($name == 'Set-Cookie') header("$name: $value; domain=.$domain"); } return $data; } ob_start('fix_cookies'); ?> Now the domain for all cookies is set to .example.com and will now work across subdomains. If there is a better way, please let me know.
