session problem

[psaurabh]

Hi
i have been using session , everything is quite fine , but if anyone can tell me how to delete the session after perosn has logged out or closed the browser.

i am using
session_unset();
i tried session_destroy();
but it didn't worked , session file was not deleted
Thanks in advance

session_destroy() should do it.
Outdatet sessions are deleted automatically by PHP once in a while.

As a workaround you could set a variable in the session that indicates wether the session is valid or not.

session_destroy() It is right .
i am sure that it will work

I have a script for logout:

<?php session_start();session_unset();session_destroy();?>

Each time it is called it says Warning: Session object destruction failed in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\matrim\logout.php on line 1

Even after session_unset... I can still see the variable (it got the "right" value).

I am also having a similar problem to gunther.
I use session_start(),session_register("a","b","c");
then session_destroy();

I see that the file is gone (/tmp/sess_bla blah)

yet when i use the same browser to log in,
a, b, and c are still set...

either the problem is in the browser OR PHP is not refreshing memory??!!!
