problem with cookies

I have a small problem with php cookies, this is the script I use to set cookies on my website visitors computer:

<?php
	
    if ( $_POST["cookie"] != '' ) {
	   
	   $inTwoMonths = 60 * 60 * 24 * 60 + time();
	   setcookie('name', date("G:i - m/d/y"), $inTwoMonths);
	   
	} ?>
    
	<?php
	if(!isset($_COOKIE['name'])) {
	  echo '<form action="" method="post">
	<input type="hidden" value="1" name="cookie" id="cookie" />
	<input type="submit" value="save cookie" />
	</form>';
	} else { 
           echo "Welcome";
           }
?>

PHP:

The real code is rather complicated but it's not important. Here is what I'm trying to do... When user click the "save cookie" button I should echo the "Welcome" text, shouldn't it? But it's displayed only after the next page load! I mean when the clicks the save cookies button than he should refresh the page again to see the Welcome text. How can I solve this problem?

I placed the setcookie function above the code where the cookie is checked but it doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

 

Works fine

<?php

if(!isset($_POST["cookie"])) 
{
 $inTwoMonths = 60 * 60 * 24 * 60 + time();
 setcookie('name', date("G:i - m/d/y"), $inTwoMonths);
} 

if(!isset($_COOKIE['name'])) 
{
print <<<HERE
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="hidden" value="1" name="cookie" id="cookie" />
<input type="submit" value="save cookie" />
</form>
HERE;
} 
else 
{ 
 echo "Welcome";
}
?>

A quick work around until you get something better

<?php
   
    if ( $_POST["cookie"] != '' ) {
       
       $inTwoMonths = 60 * 60 * 24 * 60 + time();
       setcookie('name', date("G:i - m/d/y"), $inTwoMonths);
       
    } ?>
   
    <?php
    if(!isset($_COOKIE['name'])) {
      echo '<form action="" method="post">
    <input type="hidden" value="1" name="cookie" id="cookie" />
    <input type="submit" value="save cookie" />
    </form>';
    } else {
           error_reporting(OFF);
           header( "Location: /" ) ;
           echo "Welcome";
           }
?>

None of the codes work for me

 

What does the code MyVodaFone posted do for you?
