RE: [PHP] can't restart session

In order to use the set_cookie method to kill a session_id you need to specify the name of the session, you have used 'user_info' but nowhere in your code do you specify the session_name("user_info") as the sessions name. HTH Ade -Original Message- From: Chris W. Parker [mailto:[EMAIL PRO

Re: [PHP] can't restart session

You have the same session id, but there is no data in it, so what's the problem? You should still consider the user logged out since the session is empty, right? If you really want, upon logout, make a new session id with session_id(), md5() and uniqid(). ---John Holmes... - Original Message
