[SOLVED] Log out button

mattyjc_uk1 · 09-27-2008, 01:24 PM

Hi I'm developing a website for someone and I have been html and php. I'm new to php does anyone know the code that will enable a log out button to log a user out and destroy both the cookie and the session?

The method described here: http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/PHP/P...y-a-Beginners/ works quite well and is easy to implement. If I can do it, anyone can.

Just to add my 2 cents, the tutorials here: www.w3schools.com have an excellent set of PHP beginner tutorials(there is a tutorial on logging users in/out securely, though dm01 seems to have an article on that anyway)...

Cheers,
Jamey
