Hi Alan, Hi Kee, I would say Kee is wrong. In our application, the development of which I am involved in, for a special case we need to write a cookie and redirect to another page. So we use Apache::Cookie to write the cookie and http redirect. Cookie is always set. I changed the http redirect to html meta refresh and it still worked, as I thought it would!
