Could somebody help me?

I'm trying to get a dinamic image generated by a Servlet, which is called by
IMG tag. This servlet sends a cookie to the browser too, but as the url of
the servlet has to be generated dinamically, I have used a javascript
function. When I set the src of IMG using a javascript function, the cookies
are ignored in Netscape, but in Internet Explorer it runs fine.
Why? Are there other way to do the same?

A example of my HTML page

<HTML>
<HEAD>
  <META http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache">
  <META http-equiv="Expires" content="Monday, 01-Jan-90 00:00:00 GMT">

  <SCRIPT language="javascript">
    var dir=null;

    function direction()
    {
      dir="http://localhost/servlet/MyServlet";
      var now=new Date();
      var cad=dir+"?keyGroup=0&main="+document.URL+"&time="+now;
      document.button.src=cad;

      return(true);
    }
  </SCRIPT>
</HEAD>

<BODY>
  <IMG src="javascript:direction()" NAME="button">
</BODY>
</HTML>
