Re: setcooke(...) before header("Location: XYZ") - Cookie doesn't set!

Sorry, that message it what is in the body of the response, so it's not working, I think. Unless that's what it's supposed to do. In that case, it won't work for what I want. I simply want the form to send to the php file, which then processes the information, and redirects the user to the next screen. I would like the transition to be invisible. On a related question, I guess I could use global variables instead of cookies. Is there a benefit or detriment to that, other than it doesn't persist like a cookie would?

Is it working for you now, or not? What do you mean by "returns"....is the above sent as an HTTP response header? Or does this show up in the body of the response? Since the above contains the 'Set-Cookie' directive (which IIS would normally strip out) it should be working...
