Hi there,
I am wondering if it is possible to send a cookie and read it on the same
page.
Following environment:
There is a cookie already on the machine of the client, but expired.
Now I am setting a new cookie and reading it on the same page via $sess_id =
$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[$sesscookiename];

There is no chance for the server to re-read the cookies from the

after step 2 above, unless, as you've observed, you refresh the page,
which in effect just repeats both steps.
One ugly way that I've gotten around this
Direct answer: No, you cannot read a cookie on the same page that creates
it.
The question is: why would you want to?
After all, you already have the data available to you that you would read
from the cookie because you had to use it to create the cookie on that page.
