Logging out and clearing sessions

[overlordofevil]

I am trying to get a logout script to work.

 

Basically a person clicks on this

 

<a href="process.php?do=logout" target="_top">Logout</a>

 

now what is suppose to happen is this link should call up the logout script (below) and return the user to the login screen.

 

	}

if ($_GET['do']=="logout") 
{
	session_unset();
	session_destroy();
	if ($_COOKIE[user_id]) 
	{
		setcookie("nero_id", "");
		setcookie("nero_name", "");
		setcookie("nero_pass", "");
		setcookie("nero_rights", "");
	}
	header("Location: index.php");
}

 

What I get after all of this runs is just a blank screen so I am not sure what I missed. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Sounds like you don't have error reporting turned on in your PHP.INI

 

Do you have access to enable it?

well I am testing on a box here at the house before I upload to the webserver.

 

I will check to make sure the error log is turned on in the PHP.INI, just curious what will that do for me ?

 

Thanks for the suggestion.

stick this at the top of your screen

 

error_reporting(E_ALL);

 

Should make the errors come up for now.

 

I'd guess it resets your sessions correctly, but can't send the header because it's already changed the session info (headers can't be sent twice)

 

Stick

echo "Logged out";

before the header tag, see if that comes up.

cool thanks for the advice...

 

um the code works fine now, my server was locking up so I rebooted and everything works.
