you can not set cookies on pages that are basically just cflocations because
those pages are never loaded to the client browser.

An email is sent out with a url on it. THe url sets a cookie and then
redirects the user with a cflocation tag.
For some reason, the cflocation tag is run before the cfcookie tag is
complete thus not allowing the cookie to be set.
Any ideas?

PS Code:
<CFQUERY NAME="getnextpage" DATASOURCE="mydsn">
SELECT
refid,
formrefid,
nextpage,
campaignenddate
FROM
qb_referral
WHERE
refid='#URL.refid#'
</CFQUERY>
<CFIF getnextpage.RecordCount GT 0>
<!--- set cookie (if it already exists it doesn't matter) --->
<!--- set it to "CID<ID of campaign>" and equal to 1 --->
<!--- we only need to check if it exists on the order pages --->
<cfif getnextpage.campaignenddate eq "">
<cfset enddate = Now()>
<cfelse>
<Cfset enddate = getnextpage.campaignenddate>
</cfif>
<cfset days_to_end = DateDiff("d",Now(),enddate)>
<cfif days_to_end eq 0><Cfset days_to_end = 1></cfif>
<!-- set cookie -->
<cfcookie name="CID#getnextpage.refid#" value="1"
expires="#days_to_end#">
<!-- check if cookie exists -->
<cfif NOT IsDefined("cookie.CID#getnextpage.refid#")>
