note 85743 added to function.session-destroy

I ran an experiment. Firefox3 and IE7 both behave the same on my machine. The following statements clear out the variables immediately: session_unset() $_SESSION = array() unset($_SESSION['whatever']) But if you are intent upon using session_destroy(), know that it only empties out the variables when the page is reloaded or redirected to some other page. As long as it's the same page, the variables are still usable after invoking session_destroy(). ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 72.223.11.42 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-destroy.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/85743 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85743/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85743/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85743/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85743/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85743/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85743/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85743 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/85743 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
