If the browser window is closed, the browser does not send the session
cookie.
but the session objects would still be in the server until the session times
out.
So it is good to invalidate the session.

So it is better to redirect the user to a logout servlet or jsp which
invalidates the session and displays the logged out message.

Subject: a doubt on sessions


Hello all,

I have a doubt on session, can any body tell me if it is necesary to
invalidate a session when the user  presses a button that have a the
following javascript code:   "javascript:window.top.close()", that closes
the browser window?.

If I have to invalidate the session, how can i do it with javascript, i can
not use the method invalidate of the HttpSession object because I am using
html for the menues and not jsp, what can I do in that case.

Thanks in advace

Lorena
