I am currently working on a project that spans accross multiple domains. What I want is for the user to be able to login on one site and be logged in on all the others at the same time.
The users session is stored in the database, the cookies that I set on each domain contain the session id.
So basically when a user logs in to example.com a cookie is created with their session id, the session data is stored in the database. Once this is done a cookie needs to be created on all the other domains with this unique session id so that as the user travels from site to site they will automatically be logged in.
Now I have found a way to do this in Firefox (using image tags that executes PHP scripts on the other domains, essentially creating the different cookies on the different domains) but this method doesn't work in IE (havn't tested Opera or Safari etc. yet).
Does anyone have any ideas about how I can get this to work in IE?
