RE: How can I logoff
I'm using form authentication and used session.invalidate(). This works great but the browser may be cacheing your logoff page, in which case you may get some unexpected results if you logoff and back in more than once. You need to disable the page cacheing. I used the following in the head section of my page. meta http-equiv=Pragma content=no-cache meta http-equiv=Expires content=0 Hopefully this little tidbit will help someone else avoid a few hours of debugging that I went through. :o) Dave

Re: How can I logoff
Try session.invalidate() then send the HTTP status code 401 Unauthorized session.invalidate(); response.sendError(response.SC_UNAUTHORIZED, Logged out); Might get you going in the right direction. -Chris - Original Message - From: Blue, Neil [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 19, 2001 11:15 AM Subject: RE: How can I logoff Thank you Kaneda, It doesn't seem to work.

RE: How can I logoff
Looking at the headers, the browser keeps sending the authorization info anyway so removing the session does not remove the logon in formation.
