Then use an HTML meta refresh (or javascript, just not Header("Location...) to redirect them to another page.

Why not header("Location...")? Just out of interest -- it's always worked for me, and it's a much better way to redirect users for many reasons[1] (like not breaking the back button).

For some reason (and maybe it's no longer true) I've had problems setting a cookie and then doing a header("Location..."). Seems some browsers wouldn't pick up the cookie.

Now... when this happened (could have been as early as 98) I don't recall, but it's always stuck with me and I usually end up spitting back a little javascript to send the user wherever it is I want them to go...
