Excellent question. I don't know how to do it practically. But it
basically involves the server sending some information in the header of its
response that will clear the HTTP-AUTH headers that the browser has
cached. I suggest that you read up on the HTTP protocol and how the HTTP
auth header in the browser is set by the server.
