You'll probably need to trigger the deletion of all expired carts with
something other than trying to guess when the user closes their browser.
Maybe a regular cronjob, or just do it inside your globally-included
function definition script so that any hit to the website can trigger it for
you, or perhaps just put it in the script that's used when creating a new
cart for someone.

Subject: [PHP] deleting cart items on session expire
> hey all,
>
> I was wondering how one would suggest removing items from a cart system
once the session lifetime has expired. I have it set to the default 0, which
expires the session on browser close, what I want to be able to do is
"delete * from Cart where session='$PHPSESSID'" when the user closes thier
browser window is this even possible? maybe using register_shutdown_function
or something?
