When I exit an Android app that is currently running a CodeIgniter web application within the Android mobile browser, the CodeIgniter session remains active and does not properly

Hello there, I am currently working on developing a Mobile App with CodeIgniter and PhoneGap/Cordova.

My application is designed to open a local static HTML file in the android web browser, followed by using window.open to redirect to an external URL on the server where my web application runs. After logging into the web application, closing the mobile app, and reopening it, I noticed that the session on the web application did not close as expected. This issue arises even though I have set the variable

$config['sess_expire_on_close'] = TRUE;

in the config.php file of CodeIgniter, which should terminate sessions when all browser windows are closed. Surprisingly, this functionality works flawlessly on desktop browsers but fails within the android web browser inside my app built using phonegap and compiled with phonegap build.

I would greatly appreciate any assistance or guidance on how to resolve this. Thank you in advance.

Answer №1

To tackle the issue at hand, I utilized the PHP variable $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] to differentiate between a URL being accessed from the Mobile App or the Web Application. Depending on this distinction, I then proceeded to load either one HTML document or another.
