ok here is my try. but the script keeps redirecting and getting error in browser. i want to set cookies then continue doing other thing on same page

my $val = "xttsyyd6774";
my $link = "http://localhost/test.pl?val=$val"; # main link 

if ($val) {
my $cookie = $cgi->cookie(-name => 'demo', -value => $val, -expires =>
+ '+20m');
print $cgi->redirect(-location =>$link, -cookie =>$cookie);
next; # after creating our cookie with one time redirect then continue
+ do other staffs on page
}

<p>so after creating cookie and page comes back from redirect then i c
+ontinue doing other things on page. but am getting this error</p>

This page isn’t working localhost.com redirected you too many times.
Try clearing your cookies.

the main solution i want. is to redirect once. if the page is opened

i want to set cookies then continue doing other thing on same page

In which case, don't redirect.

if i dont redirect cookie failed to set itself
