I use the location.replace() function on my logout page. That works
well, but isn't supported by older browsers. So you can use if
document.images to test it.
On the logout page:
<script language="javascript">
If (document.images)
location.replace('http://yourserver.com/index.cfm');
Else
location.href = 'index.cfm';
</script>

variable
I guess, after solving the killing session issue, my next problem is how
to
prevent or stop users from clicking the "Back" button in the browser and
getting back to the system after they logout. I know this is an old
issue
and someone has mentioned this before, but I didn't keep those messages.
Can
someone give me a pointer on how to disable the "Back" button?
Thans a lot.
Nathan
