Barry,
Did you try to use setcookie with expiry date in the past? You could
use
setcookie before header function of the following manner.
session_start();
if (!(isset($_SESSION['username']) && $_SESSION['username'] != '')) {
setcookie("session","session id", 1);
header ("Location: login.html");
}
Best regards,
Luiz Alberto
