Unable to access cookies set by another Domain in IE

Question

I am setting the cookie from a local HTML file as below using cookie.js library

$.cookies.set("Demo","Dummy Data");

From another domain I am trying to get the cookie value using below code

alert($.cookies.get("Demo")); 

But it is returning me null.
Please help me on this

Answer 1

This is by design. You can only get the value of a cookie which was set on the current domain.

What you are asking for is not possible due to the security measures built in to web browsers.

The best alternative is to make a JSONP AJAX request which can cross domains.

Answer 2

You can not read a cookie set by another domain.
