I protect my Web Application tree wiht
.htaccess file of Apache.
Is there any way to make logout exept closing all browser windows.

you may send back a 401 Unauthorized to encourage the browser to flush its login/pass-settings for this domain.

Couldn't you destroy the session?

I would think if you were using sessions using session_destroy() would do what you want.

You don't use sessions with .htaccess :lol: It's HTTP authentication!

It's not nice to laugh at other people's answers Takuma - you could have pointed that out without the :lol: and maybe explained a bit better. lanlord was trying to help and may have never come across .htaccess or may have read the question wrong considering it's in the completely wrong forum for the subject (I've moved it to Miscellaneous now).
