Thanks Marek for a reply. I'm not sure but I have been thinking that unset($_COOKIES) does not destroy the cookie from the client side but just unsets the cookie variable from the script? My target is to destroy the cookie from the client or send a new session id there.

You are right, unset($_COOKIES) does not remove cookie from the client. You need to unset() it so that your next call to session_start() does not use the same $_COOKIES[session_name()]. session_start will generate new session id if there is not one set in the request variables.
