What HTML Command Do I need to use to close a Browser Session ?

[rthorpe3]

I have a Web based application that has a logout button avaliable to the user.

At the moment if you click the logout button it takes you back to the login screen. I want to change this though so when the user clicks the logout button it close that particular browser session.

Is this possible and if so what is the command ?

The html at the moment looks like this, on logout it takes the user to the

http://www.***.***/portal/wholesale

page, how do I make kill that browser session ?

function logout()
{
mydt = new Date();
top.wilogoutstatusbar.location.href ="%SCRIPT_NAME%/WIGenerator/wigenerator/g
enerator/Logout?cnt="+mydt.getTime();

setTimeout("top.location.href =\"

http://www.***.***/portal/wholesale\"",1000

);

return;

You can't do that with html. If your site supports php, you can do this:

<a href=&quot;logout.php&quot;>Logout</a>

logout.php
--------------------------------------------------
<?
session_destroy();
?>

<center>
You have successfully logged out. Come back soon <br />
<a href=&quot;login.php&quot;>Login</a>
</center>
