Description:
------------
The logout() method for Auth_HTTP doesn't seem to work;
even after calling it I am still able to see pages I
should not be able to.


After calling logout() the session variable _authhttp...
remains set and the browser still sends the authentication
information as best I can tell.

I am running into the same problem. I have installed:
Auth 1.2.3 stable
Auth_HTTP 2.1.6 stable

I have tried Firefox 1.0.6 on OS X, and Lynx Version 2.8.5dev.16.

I found one suggestion for a workaround here:
http://www.phpmaniacs.com/newsgroups/article.php?id=17638&group=php.pear.general

but it is not doing the trick for me.

What is the method for logging out of auth_http? Does the call to logout() have to come at a particular part of the script?

I've got exactly the same problem - the logout() function does absolutely nothing. I've been trying it in Opera, IE, Firefox and Safari.
