Here's one approach you could try. Set a cookie, send a redirect, and see if
you get the cookie back ...
Script 1 - cookiecheck1.php
<?php
setcookie("testcookie","ok");
header("Location: cookiecheck2.php");
?>
Script 2 - cookiecheck2.php
<?php
if ($testcookie =="ok")
print "This browser appears to handle cookies OK.";
else
print "This browser either doesn't support use of cookies,
or has cookie use disabled.";
?>
