Session is not closed by log_out() method when you opt to check Autologin option in login.php. you are redirected to logout page and further you can vistit any protected page and session is still active (you can view the page, and get_user_info() shows the details).
log_out() works fine when you don't use autologin, you can exit normally.
Tested in several browsers.
Any suggestion on what is wrong?
Thanks.

Hi Olaf, thanks for replying. In fact I'm using the latest version , 1.99 (2008). I think I'm using it the right way as I can logout the normal way, but if I checked autologin in login page then the session cannot be logued out.

Useful info:
a) COOKIE_PATH = "/"
b) when I delete the cookie manually, and then click to log out, then the session ends normally.

I've actually find 2 issues in a couple of websites with this class (v1.99) and different setup of directories. The class works fine but:

1) The session ends quickly (with no order to logout) in any random protected page.

2) By using Autologin the session cannot be logged out.

Any suggestion on what is happening?
Thanks.
