Ahh... that sucks... but thanks for giving me the answer. Yeah previously in
such cases I had people just log into each site separately but thought there
might be a nice solution.
Unfortunately the subdomain technique has other drawbacks that aren't worth
it.
I don't think I'm going to bother implementing this right now, but in
theory... let's say you configured Firefox to "accept third-party cookies"
(false by default) could you set a cookie for both domains whenever a person
logs in to one of them? Would that solve the problem?
