In the manual it's stated, that session_destroy() always returns true, but that is not so. The following script produces the output "FALSE" on my box, indicating that session_destroy() does not return TRUE.

<?php
session_start();
$tmpvar = session_destroy();
if ($tmpvar) {
	echo "TRUE<BR>\n";
} else {
	echo "FALSE<BR>\n";
}
?>

If you need information about my version of PHP, then you can access this page: http://www.groundcontrol.dk/php/phpinfo.php - that file contains just <?php phpinfo(); ?> and should give you all the details about my version of PHP.

If you need my php.ini file, then just ask.

session_destroy returns void. The manual has been fixed.
