CF sessions end when the session expires. Your Application.cfm/cfc file is generally where you have the settings for your session. Whatever the expiration time is for your session is when it will expire (from the last page refresh).
Closing the browser does nothing to the session as the server doesn't know that you've closed the browser. If you find a good answer to "ending the session when the user closes his/her browser" then you'll be a RICH man as many people have tried this very thing including myself. <!----------------//------ andy matthews web developer certified advanced coldfusion programmer ICGLink, Inc.
