Giscard,

I like this idea but I'm not sure what you mean by
logout:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/logout.html.  I understand
that the user should be redirected to a protected page
which is accessible only to the logout user, but how
can I set the authorization header to contain the
logout username without having the browser's dialog
box show up and having the end user actually type in
the logout username?  Is this possible?  Do you mean
use the URLConnection class or something like that?

Thanks for the idea -- it is definitely the one which
carries the most potential at the moment, and I'm
looking forward to your answers.

Jane
