Actually, this code doesn't delete Session or Client variables.
What it does delete is the link between an individual browser and the
variables on the server. Client and Session variables are associated with a
specific browser via those two cookies (assuming you're using cookies
instead of URL parameters, as you are).
As a result, you can't destroy the link to one without destroying the link
to the other. You could, however, work around this by doing your own state
management - set your own cookie on the browser, then retrieve data based on
the value of that cookie.
A better question for you, though, might be why you're using both Session
and Client variables - two ways of doing the same thing? That's probably not
the best approach.
