This is what I came up with in Flash:

stop();
var ses:string;

//create the local Shared Object
myLocalSO = sharedobject.getLocal("hookie" );

if(_root.destroy) {
myLocalSO.data.name = "destroyed";
}
else {
//if cookie already exists then get ses from cookie
if (myLocalSO.data.name.length == 32) {
ses = myLocalSO.data.name;
getURL("index.php", "_self", "GET");
}
//if cookie does not exist then make it
else {
//get parameter from query string (INPUT)
//if(_root.PHPSESSID){
// ses = _root.PHPSESSID;
// getURL("episode.php", "_self", "GET");
//}
//if(ses.length <> 32) {
// ses = "testcookie" + getTimer()
//}
myLocalSO.data.name = _root.PHPSESSID;
}
ses = myLocalSO.data.name;
getURL("voter.php", "_self", "POST");
}
