PHP Session Management

[precisonline]

Stumbled upon something interesting.  In PHP we have session_start() to start a session, but there's no session_end() or session_close() that closes up everything nice and neat.  Yes, there is a session_destroy() which removes the server side variables, but ... it leaves the client cookie intact!  So if you need to close up both sides of the session - and hey why not? - try this:

function session_close()
{
    setcookie(session_name(),false);  // Kill the cookie on the client
    session_destroy();                     // ...then kill the server side info
}
