Here is my solution to close the session on browser close.
For Hal Helm's solution, see www.halhelms.com Closing sessions on browser
close
This tutorial explains how to make application sessions expire when the
user closes their browser.
Put this code in a global location, say app_global.cfm or
application.cfm. Make sure to use the <CF_LOCATION> custom tag, not
<CFLOCATION>
=======================================
<CFIF Not IsDefined("Cookie.Online")>
<CFLOOP LIST="#GetClientVariablesList ()#" index="curvar">
<CFSET temp=DeleteClientVariable(curvar) >
</cfloop>
<CFCOOKIE name="ONLINE" value="TRUE">
<CF_LOCATION url="index.cfm?fuseaction=main">
</CFIF>
=======================================
NOTE: this code has the added side effect of forcing the user to come to
the main fuseaction (or whichever one you set) when they first come to the
site. ie, you can't open a link to any other fuseaction as the first page,
and expect it to work. This may or may not be desired.
I guess you could fix that like this, but you will need to run the code
after the <CF_URLFORM2ATTRIBUTES> tag:
<CF_LOCATION url="index.cfm?fuseaction=#attributes.fuseaction#">
