<para>
If <varname>$_SESSION</varname> is used, use <function>unset</function> to
unregister a session variable, i.e.
<literal>unset ($_SESSION['varname']);</literal>.
</para>
</note>
<caution>
<para>
Do NOT unset the whole <varname>$_SESSION</varname> with
<literal>unset($_SESSION)</literal> as this will disable the registering
of session variables through the <varname>$_SESSION</varname> superglobal.
</para>
</caution>
<note>
<para>
Only use <function>session_unset</function> for older deprecated code
that does not use <varname>$_SESSION</varname>.
