As you've discovered, your understanding isn't correct. Closing the browser deletes the session cookie that associates the browser with the session, but has no effect on the existence of the session on the server. From the user's perspective, it appears that the session no longer exists. > However I've been testing this out and the > OnSessionEnd code I have in the application.cfc does not run > when the browser is closed it only seems to run when the > session times out. Is there a way to trigger the OnSessionEnd > when a user closes the browser? Thanks. There is no guaranteed way to destroy the session data when the browser is closed. You could use the onunload event of your page to make a server request, but it may not work in many cases. Your best bet is simply to let the session expire normally.
