Short answer: you can't. Fortunately, sessions expire automatically after a period of time; check your servlet engine documentation to see how to set this timeout period.

I felt that there should be a way to do it from JavaScript; unfortunately, JavaScript doesn't seem to have an onWindowClose handler.
