A lot has been said on the issue already, so I'll attempt to keep mine
brief.
Cache control will help a little, but not all browsers support it. Yes, it
will cause a little more traffic on your site, and yes it will "help" keep
some people from clicking back, but it certainly won't FIX anything.
You might consider using cookies that keep track of the user's
login name and a bitwise status to control AAA (Authentication,
Authorization, and Access0 controls instead of using session variables.

Instead of doing a foreach to unset your session variables you can use
session_unset(); which will unset all your session variables for you.
Additionally if you are wanting to remove a cookie from a visitor's
browser you should use setcookie, not unset $_COOKIE, $_COOKIE allows
you to access the v

I am using SESSION on al my secure projects
I use a file structur as this:
(loginform) -> logincheck.php (if not ok->back2login | if ok (start an
session)(forward to the secure pages))
When the user logs out:
(securepages)->logout.php:
$val){
session_unregister("$key");
}
// We destroys

Exactly - and some don't follow other HTTP header directives to the
letter either. You will not be able to 'secure' this stuff 100% simply
because

This can be done using (one, or more) of the following headers:
// HTTP 1.1 compliant:
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
// HTTP 1.0
