| | **Example:** If you're testing two different sites at subdomains of the same domain (like ''store1.example.com'' and ''store2.example.com''), you'd put this script tag before the FoxyCart script tag: |
| | <code html> |
| | <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> |
| | var sitedomain = 'store1.example.com'; |
| | </script> |
| | </code> |
| | <wrap tip>**Note:** You probably wouldn't want to keep this in production, unless the site //only// lives at a subdomain, and is never available at the ''example.com'' top level domain.</wrap> |

| The ''cookiepath'' determines the ''fcsid'' cookie's path. This is almost always going to be empty, so the cookies would be set at ''.example.com'', but if you do need to have multiple FoxyCart sessions on the same domain you could use this setting to restrict cookies to something like ''.example.com/en/'' and ''.example.com/es/'' (to split English and Spanish FoxyCart stores, for example). | The ''cookiepath'' determines the ''fcsid'' cookie's path.
