PHP cookie for a different domain

Hey

I am trying to make my website, lets call it http://www.drslony.org, create a cookie that another website, from a family of websites that I run, will be able to access. Lets call the other one http://www.other.org

Running the code below from http://www.drslony.org will result in a cookie that only drslony.org will be able to access, right?
<?php setcookie("biscuit", "1", "0"); ?>

I assumed that adding http://www.other.org to the domain (as below) will enable http://www.other.org to read the cookie that http://www.drslony.org created, but it doesn't (or at least I don't know how to make it do so).
<?php setcookie("biscuit", "1", "0", "/", "www.other.org"); ?>

Can anyone help me out?

You cannot under any circumstance create a cookie for another domain.
