When you create a cookie in your script, it is automatically sent
via the HTTP server to the client (browser). The same occurs with
$_SESSION information, as the PHPSESSID cookie is sent to the browser
to track the session name.
With regard to redirection, there are a lot of ways to do that,
but the easiest is as follows:
<?
header("Location: somefile.php");
exit;
?>
Just be sure to always exit; after using the header("Location:
xxx"); to stop the current script from running, unless you have
explicit reasons not to do so.

If at first you don't succeed, stick to what you know best so that you
can make enough money to pay someone else to do it for you.
