How are add-on domains dealt with by sessions & cookies?

[tunnelboy]

So probably a stupid question, but I have my shared hosting domain called oldcompany.com. I have an add-on domain (not a sub-domain) within this account called newcompany.com which is really the one we use everywhere. 

 

For the sake of cookies and sessions, which would be correct?

 

setcookie("foo","test",strtotime('+180 days'),"/","oldcompany.com"); 

 

or 

 

setcookie("foo","test",strtotime('+180 days'),"/","newcompany.com"); 

 

 

All references on the website are to newcompany.com and there is NO reference whatsoever to oldcompany.com

The two domains are completely separate. The fact that you own both, that one is an "add-on", that they're probably hosted with the same company, it's all irrelevant.

 

If you want to set a cookie for newcompany.com then that's what you need to use.
