logging out in IE/Mozilla - newbs

[avermat]

This is the first time I've ever done this, but I've created a subscription site.
Users access the "members" folder via "logging in" with a username and password. Now I'm having a problem with understanding "logging out". All I've done is used a window.close() function to log out. The problem is sometimes it just doesn't work. Especially if you have other windows open and even if you don't.

Besides that in Mozilla it won't even close the window b/c it wasn't opend with javascript. How can I get it so it actually logs people off? Or is this not possible using .htaccess? Heck I don't even understand .htaccass.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, avermat!

The first questions is: how are you doing the logging in and constant authentication? Knowing this we can help with the logging out!
