Yup, that's about right.... A hidden field in a form is set with the subsites
URL.  The UEUE server will then set cookies based on the subsite's domain...
:)

If you want to check some of this out... head over here:

http://members.evolt.org/garrett/uetest/register.php

If you view source you can see some of the framework.  Not everything is
perfect... I mean, we leave the subsite-secret-key in plain text... clearly
Not A Good Thing(tm), but it's the general gist of the thing...

After you register, you are redirected back to garrett's site, simulating a
redirect to a *.e.o subsite.

If you want to relogin, go
http://members.evolt.org/mnickel/ueue/ueue_login.php

This relogin simulates a login form on a subsite, garrett's,  with a
redirect_site back to garrett's...

the biggest advantage is that you get to look at your cookies for *.e.o  and
most of the digital signature stuff is there.

This is all based on the UEUE v.0.1 document.  It hasn't been fully updated
with v.0.2
