in reply to IE not setting or retireving cookies

Experience told me that IE don't like Set-Cookie: and Location: in the same header.

The way I found to bypass this particular problem was making the redirect in javascript if the browser was IE.

You can do that with this html: 
<html><body>
<script>window.location='/thenewurl';</script>
</body></html>

It's not the perfect solution I would like to use, but it works. It's too bad that some software that renders HTML shouldn't be called browser.

    I'm not sure what I did here but when I tried this I got an Error 500 from the server. Thanks for the thought though.
