logout script

hey guys ...
can anybody tell me a php logout script.
I want to log out from one page which i was developing ,
i tried but it's not working. I have tried
session_destroy(),session_unset() functions
but they are not working.
If any one is having that script then please help me .

Are you saying that the Session state is kept even after you close all
browsers?

Are you sure you're not using other cookies rather than Session data?

$_SESSIONS=array(); after the session_destroy() clears the session
variables.

me.

If the original poster is doing this and still has problems; I would
suggest checking the session name on your logged in pages and also the
logging out page. Use the session_name() function to see this.
Personally I always use a custom session name for `security` purposes.

technically I don't think there's much against the other way around,
from a logical point of view I think 'yours' is the preferred.

before quitting the page, so I never noticed. Seems a bit crap, after
all, you're asking it to 'destroy' the session, does anyone have a use
for destroying it and _still_ retaining the variables until script end?

longer needed. Destroying a session might make other pages start to fail
because of session variables they use.

And maybe the site doesn't have this potential problem now - but what
about later? It's things like this which take hours (or days) to track
down.
