Muddy_Funster Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 could you explain more clearly what you are looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManiacDan Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 You can't use the same session for two different sites, but you can certainly use the same database. Whatever functionality you use to log someone in, change that to a new, shared database. Move your authentication information to that shared db.

Vel Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 The only possible thing you could do is to include a cookie that is created on login on either site that is recognised by both sites. You would have to check to see if a cookie created by that site or created by the other site exists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManiacDan Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 You think I could write a site that would ready your phpfreaks or facebook cookies? No. Cookies are hard locked to the domain they came from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
