How to make sure the Cookie is set before a new request is made?

Question

I have an issue that should be fixed on the server side, but a quick workaround on the client side would be acceptable.

I need to make a JS call after the page is loaded and the http-only secure cookie is already set. I'm using window.onload event to call window.location.replace(), but even though the page is loaded with the SET-COOKIE HTTP response header, the new request doesn't send the cookie.

How to make sure the Cookie is set before a new request is made?

A workaround that works for Chrome, FF and IE8+ is to use a setTimeout() inside the window.onload event handler. I'm looking for a better solution and an explanation, though...

Thanks,

@tank , I don't have access to this code anymore. Can you try it? – Ricardo Jan 11 '16 at 21:32
it worked only cookie set before a new request. a request has send out while onload exec. So, request will not contain the cookie you set after you request. – suiwenfeng Jan 12 '16 at 06:05
