Here is my issue:
I have a login page called login.php (containing no HTML code). When the user types in his credentials correctly he's redirected to a specific page; we'll say test.php for this example. The only links on that page logout of the current session, and return the user to index.html.
My problem is that if the user presses the back button, it goes back to login.php and you get a blank page. If you navigate away from that blank page you have no way to get back to test.php thus no way to logout of that session.
My original idea was to disable the back button navigation with Javascript. Eventually I figured out that wouldn't work, because if the user found a way to get out of that page without logging out, they would be stuck in that session and login.php would be blank.
So is there any way to end the current session if that back button is pressed? Or if login.php is reloaded? I'm not too familiar with PHP so a detailed explanation would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the code for the login page:
