If you do not post the relevant code, there is little we can do. If you've created the cookie, here's the syntax:</code>

print $query->redirect( -uri    => 'http://www.perlmonks.org/',
                        -cookie => $cookie );

Don't print any headers before that. Provide us the following:

• Relevant code (between <CODE> tags)
• Web server
• OS
• Perl version number

The problem will probably be easy to spot if you provide us with just the first two items from list.
