How to destroy the session cookie correctly with PHP?

by

If you really want to cover all bases try doing:

setcookie (session_id(), "", time() - 3600);
session_destroy();
session_write_close();

That should prevent further access to the session data for the rest of PHP execution. The browser may still show the cookie being set however the $_SESSION super will be blank
