Well output (from print 'output';)gets printed, as would any other stuff I put down there, like a properly formatted HTML document or something.

I haven't tried CGI::Cookie, but I will soon. It shouldn't really be necessary, since CGI.pm itself has cookie functionality with the cookie() method, as stated all over the docs and tutorials and stuff and in perldoc CGI. I'd prefer to stick with just CGI.pm but if no-one can come up with a solution for that I guess CGI::Cookie will have to be the answer (assuming that works).

As for the path, according to the docs it defaults to '/' but even setting it to that explicitly doesn't make any difference. SteveAZ98, you seem to have ...->header(-'cookie'=>$cook... which is not what the docs say, unfortunately it doesn't work for me though. Any more ideas?
