For many moons, I’ve been complaining about the fact that no browsers allow you to log out of BASIC HTTP auth. Seems that Mozilla is finally considering implementing this.

So, eventually, the “how do I log out” FAQ in the Apache auth tutorial will have to include this information. And maybe some other browsers will follow suit. You’d think that after 10 years of people asking for this feature, it could have happened a little sooner.

See also this page about how to do this in IE. But I don’t really understand that one.
