That's because when you redirect, that's all you can do. The only similar
thing that you might try is to send the cookie and then for your response
send a dummy page with an HTTP-META-equiv tag in the <HEADER>  specifying a
refresh with a timeout of zero and also with the URL that you want to
redirect to. That should result in the cookie being sent and the browser
being redirected without showing any content of the dummy page.
