   Ok, so I have the code :

   function set_my_cookie(){
   setcookie('my_cookie', '2011', 8600, '/', get_bloginfo('url')); //set the cookie
   }

   This is attached as a hook to wp_head add_action('wp_head', 'set_my_cookie'); .

   It doesn't works since wp_head() is called after some output is sent to the bowser and I am supposed to set the cookie BEFORE any output is sent.

   So what hook can I use to make it work?

   ***edit***
   I also need the current post ID (if is_single) to be available for my function.

   Good news I finally figured a way out. Heredown the code:

   add_action('posts_results', 'set_my_cookie');
   function set_my_cookie(){
      global $wp_query;
   
      $cpost = $wp_query->posts[0]; //get the current post
   
      if(!wp_is_post_revision($cpost)) {
         if( is_single() || is_page() ) {
             $id = $cpost->ID;
                  setcookie('my_cookie_for_'.$id, '2011', 8600, '/', get_bloginfo('url')); //set the cookie
   
          }
      }
   }
