Setcookies and redirect

Talking about cookies and headers >> doesn't work because you can't set any http headers before a redirect >> header.... as far as i know .... >Correct. But i have observed that sometimes it doesn't work even though no >output has been sent to the client. I observed a related behaviour on IE on Windows and Opera (Linux and Windows). Mozilla M18 Linux seems to have an herratic attitute towards this: sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. In brief: while Netscape 4.75 on Linux sets the cookie and redirects flawlessly (I use a technique similar to the one described in your pseudo-function: a script with no output is called, sets the cookie and redirects back), the other browsers actually do not redirect, but the cookie gets set (although Opera does not warn me of the cookie even with warnings on. Doh.), since reloading the page manually shows the change. I must admit that I'm a bit at loss here, and I am myself mightily interested in any further details on this matter. -- Andrea Resmini a.resmini@ogcs.com hypermedia development, OGCs.com http://www.ogcs.com
