Can't send cookie and redirect together (php3/IIS)

I'm trying to set a cookie and redirect to a new page. I've tried:

setcookie("cookieName",$value,);
header ("Location: http://www.foo.com");

It does the redirect, but doesn't set the cookie. If I comment out the
redirect, it sets the cookie. If I switch the order of the lines it
does the redirect before it ever gets to the cookie line. I tried
combining the cookie and the redirect into a single "header()" call, but
couldn't find a syntax that works.

I know this should be simple, but I can't get it. Any suggestions?

The way I fixed this was setting a delay on the redirect, to 1 second. No
normal
user would notice, another way I did it and made it look nice was put a
"Loading Information"
graphic on the page, with a 10 second delay, for a normal user it looks like
you programmed
alot
