Re: Problem with unset($PHP_AUTH_USER );

There is no way to effectively log out using http authentication unless you change the realm or otherwise force a 403 again. -Rasmus On Tue, 3 Apr 2001, Adrian Murphy wrote: > I use a login script with the header() function and $PHP_AUTH_USER etc. > the problem is once i've logged in once ,i refresh the page i stay logged > in. > i want to do testing with different privileges so i want to be asked for a > username > and password each time i've refreshed the page.I thought > unset($PHP_AUTH_USER) > right after i check the db would work but it doesn't.I've also tried > varieties of ways > to avoid caching the page as well but nothing seems to work.this i know is a > damn simple problem. > but it's driving me a bit nuts.i even tried emptying my temp internet files > but to no avail. > what's going on? > thanx > a > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net >
