[RESOLVED] [2005] Cookies on 2 different domains

[ComputerJy]

Hello everyone,

I'm working on a website that runs on 2 different domains and I noticed that
whenever I try to set a cookie I noticed that I have to set the domain before changing the value within the cookie or else the browser won't allow the modification

I have 2 questions:
1- What's causing that?
2- How can I fix this issue? because it's pretty annoying to have to set the domain every time I need to change the value within the cookie.

Thanks in advance guys

You can't. It's security.

Well, I think he was expecting you realize it is to prevent a website one domain from using a cookie from another.

Because no-one except you knows that example.com is the same site as somecompletelydifferentdomain.com.

Why does that happen?
It is obivious, and was stated early.

How can you fix this?
Get both website on the same domain. That is your only option. There is no work around.
