you can use sessions... there are some modules for this. Forexample, Apache::ASP has the $Session object... or you can use javascript to delete the cookie (maybe)

I think I'm missing something... If you set a session cookie (i.e. one with no expiry time) then the cookie will be deleted immediately upon browser close, forcing the user to login again if they've closed their browser instance. If you don't use cookies and allow basic auth then the exact same behavior is called, forcing the user to re-login only if they've closed that browser instance. Is there someway to expire cookies on page leave, or is this the smartass thing you were referring to? :) -- Ryan Parr ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jon Robison" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Ron Beck" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 12, 2002 12:28 PM Subject: Re: Question... > Cookies! > > /me is in smartass mode today. > > --Jon > > Ron Beck wrote: > > > > Hello all, > > I need to know how to clear the $ENV variables.
