Reading Cookie From A Different Domain?

Can javascript read a cookie from a different domain?\ If i set a cookie in one domain say www.domain1.com. Can i read that cookie from a different domain www.domain2.com? If yes,

Solution 1:

No, the document.cookie property only gives you access to the cookies relevant to that page. Being able to read other cookies would be a fairly significant security issue.

Solution 2:

No.

Browsers specifically only give the current domain the cookies for that domain. This is a security feature.

You can even further specify where on your site this cookie is able to be accessed by adding a path.
