The HTTP response status code 302 Found is a common way of performing a redirection

This is an example of industry practice contradicting the standard. The HTTP/1.0 specification (RFC 1945) required the client to perform a temporary redirect (the original describing phrase was "Moved Temporarily"), but popular browsers implemented 302 with the functionality of a 303 See Other. Therefore, HTTP/1.1 added status codes 303 and 307 to distinguish between the two behaviours. However, some Web applications and frameworks use the 302 status code as if it were the 303.

Some article I read once said that it means jumping (from one URI to another), but I detected this "302" even when there was actually no jumping at all!

Sending browser cookies during a 302 redirect

Are there any issues with sending back a cookie during a 302 redirect? For example, if I create a return-to-url cookie and redirect the user in the same response will any (modern) browser ignore the cookie?
