ASP.Net: How to clear out session on log out

Question

i redirect the user to the login page when user click log out however i don't think it clear any application or session because all the data persisted when the user log back in.

currently the login page have a login control and the code behind on the page only wired up the login Authenticate.

Can someone direct me to a good tutorial or article about handling log in and out of asp.net web site.

Answer 3

I would prefer Session.Abandon()

Session.Clear will not cause End to fire and further requests from the client will not raise the Session Start event.

Answer 4

u must use a javascript code to do so becoz none of session.Abandon() & session.clear() can sort out this problem so just go for javascript
