Session_destroy: How does it work for you?

[Anon]

I am trying to destroy a session. Session_destroy does not work. I have sarched the archive on this subject as well as the php.net documentation. Why does it seem to work for some of you but not for others?

It looks like there are two known solutions. One is to use Mysql as storage instead of the temp file. I have not yet looked into this, so I don't know how it works. The second is to simply fill the variables and cookie with empty strings.

What are some other ideas? Which works the best? If it works for you, what's different? (I am running off a win 2000 server with apache)

Thanks Shane Anderson

I don't know how it exactly use, but I just want to tell u how I did it.

A session has a lifetim, u can change this with: session_set_cookie_params(lifetime in minutes)
With session_get_cookie_params u get a array with ["lifetime"] back, when it's 0 the time is up and u can reset the variables.

I didn't use that one.

I save the begin time in a session variable and compare this with the current time, is the time up the session variables are to be reset.

unset("sessionvariable");

I can't think of another method.

Good luck :>

I haven't had any problems using:

session_start();

...blabla...

session_destroy();

but that probably won't help you much... maybe you should change the OS :-))
