<function>session_destroy</function> destroys all of the data associated
with the current session. It does not unset any of the global variables
associated with the session, or unset the session cookie.
To use the session variables again, <function>session_start</function> has
to be called.
</simpara>
<para>
In order to kill the session altogether, like to log the user out, the
session id must also be unset. If a cookie is used to propagate the
session id (default behavior), then the session cookie must be deleted.
<function>setcookie</function> may be used for that.
