Then on the *next* index.php invocation $_COOKIE['yourcookie'] should get updated with the value you wrote to the cookie. The only way to "refresh" calculate.php is to finish output to the browser and then refresh index.php. Although perhaps using a session is better than using a cookie in this case? I guess I don't grok your problem because the way you described it seems trivial. <?php function calculate($var) { return "The value of var is $var"; } /** From the browser / cookie / whatever */ $input = 11; $output = calculate($input); setcookie('yourcookie', $output); /** And now you do whatever you want with output */ var_dump($output); ?> -- Teach a man to fish...
