You can attach an unload event to the window.
In the function called from this event you can run a synchronous (this
is imperative) ajax request to a server-side script which kills the session.
$(window).unload(function(event){
$.ajax(
{
async: false,url: "/some-url-to-script-that-kills-session/",
cache: false
}
);
});
Looks like you are mixing javascript and PHP.. Remember PHP is running on
the server side, and any action you perform in the PHP will be performed
when the request to the server is made.
PHP serves the content to the browser.
Hope this helps.
My 2 cents, why would you want to destroy the session when the page reloads?
Wouldn't this be annoying for users?
