In HTTP, there is no such thing as a login, and consequently you can't log out. On the first request, the browser gets a 401 Unauthorized status, which makes him resend another request containing user/pass. On every further request, the browser can decide to send user/pass again - HTTP does not specify how long.
However, some browsers don't send user/pass anymore when they get another 401 Unauthorized.

best bet is to use a php script for login and logout...'sessions' but what your asking isn't possible like above has said.
