This is more of a general web app development question, so you might
get better answers in another group. That said, the short answer is
that the session is expired when the session cookie is removed form
the browser. Most browsers delete session cookies when the browser
closes (not just a single window of that browser). It /may/ be
possible to use some javascript to hook into a window close event and
expire a specific cookie; but I wouldn't know how off the top of my
head, and it's possible that it might not work across all browsers.
