I have been trying different code but not able to get one to work. I propably have a quote sign out of place Something Like <form> <input type="button" value="Log Out" onclick="Session.Clear();Session.Abandon();FormsAuthentication.SignOut();Response.Redirect("login.asp")"></form>

I probably mean something more like: <input name="<% Session.Clear() Session.Abandon() Response.Redirect("login.asp") %>" type="submit" value="Log Out"> or like <FORM> <INPUT TYPE="button" VALUE="Log Out" onClick="<%session.Abandon()%>;return false;" /> </FORM> < Message edited by Mav44 -- 10/4/2009 23:13:48 > (in reply to Mav44)

You are trying to run a server side call on the client - better off passing it to a logout page that then redirects somewhere.

logout.asp:

<%
Response.Buffer=True
session.abandon
response.cookies("your_cookie") = ""
response.Cookies("your_cookie").path="/"
response.cookies("your_cookie").Expires = date - 30
response.clear
response.redirect "default.asp"
%>

I also found the following script on this site from Rdouglass that does a good job of not caching the page so the user cannot use the back button after logout. I added this to the top of my main pages. <%'@ Language="VBSCRIPT"%> <%'Option Explicit '------------------- Response.Buffer = True Response.ExpiresAbsolute = Now() - 1 Response.AddHeader "Cache-Control", "must-revalidate" Response.AddHeader "Cache-Control", "no-cache" %> Thanks Guys, I love this site.
