Here are the two things you can do to clear a session and clear a session
when the browser closes.
1.
<cflock timeout="30" name="logOut">
<cfscript>
StructClear(session);
</cfscript>
</cflock>
This will clear the users session.
2. right after the code you use to start the application you should put the
below code...
<!--- This causes the session to expire when the browser is closed. --->
<cfif IsDefined( "Cookie.CFID" ) AND IsDefined( "Cookie.CFTOKEN" )>
<cfset localCFID = Cookie.CFID>
<cfset localCFTOKEN = Cookie.CFTOKEN>
<cfcookie name="CFID" value="#localCFID#">
<cfcookie name="CFTOKEN" value="#localCFTOKEN#">
</cfif>

Subject: Expriing a session
Hi everyone.
I am having no luck expiring a users session. Here is what I am attemnpting:
User logs in.. All is fine, a session variable is set to "loggedin". When
the user clicks "log out" I call a template that sets the value of the
session var to "loggedout" and then redirect them to a new page. The problem
is that if they hit the browsers back button they can still get to the page
they were viewing when they logged on. I have tried using cflocation to send
them to the enw page and I even check for the value of the sesison var
before displaying the page that is protected via the login...
Any ideas?
