Q: 

Set Cookies on subdomain?

I have the site blah.com. I need to set 3cookies + use google analytic. I would like to set it as www.blah.com so when i serve images (on blah.com or static.blah.com) it is cookie-less.

Is this possible? How do i do it? I am using jquery-cookies and asp.net

A: 

Simply set the domain attribute of the cookie to "www.blah.com"

It doesnt seem to work. Actually i am starting to think you can set cookies of a top domain but not subdomain.

It absolutely does work and thousands of websites rely upon it. Post your incorrect code and the community can help you fix it.

Actually someone said it DOESNT work because root sites (blah.com) doesnt receive cookies from subdomain (www.blah.com) thus i cant do it. Is that true? Are you sure i can do this?

But that's exactly what you wanted-- as you said in your problem description, you say that you want your cookies sent only to "www.blah.com" and not to "blah.com" or "static.blah.com".
