I create a session in my php script.
I want to destroy my php session in javascript.
when I click on Destroy Session then javascript function destroy() call and destroy SESSION['user'].
<?php
ob_start();
session_start();
SESSION['user'] = "test 123";
echo "<a onClick = 'destroy()'>Destroy Session</a>";
?>
<script>
Function destroy(){
session_destroy(); // Like `PHP` I want destroy Session in `javascript`
}
</script>
I think you should use AJAX to destroy function from Javascript. Like :
.js code :
function destroy_session(){
var xmlhttp = getXmlHttp();
var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.open('GET','./destroy_session.php', true);
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function(){
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4){
if(xmlhttp.status == 200){
alert(xmlhttp.responseText);
}
}
};
xmlhttp.send(null);
}
destroy_session.php code:
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION = array();
if (ini_get("session.use_cookies")) {
$params = session_get_cookie_params();
setcookie(session_name(), '', time() - 42000,
$params["path"], $params["domain"],
$params["secure"], $params["httponly"]
);
}
session_destroy();
echo 'Session was destroyed';
?>
you cant directly destroy the session of php within javascript, since javascript is running on the client and php is running on the server.
but you can erase the session cookie from php within php - when its used!
but this detaches only the client from the session, no destroying the session.
What you can do is use AJAX to load a PHP page that executes a session_destroy(). jQuery has very easy ajax functions, documented here.
