PHP - Session destroy after closing browser

Though this question has multiple duplicates i could not find proper solution for me. Need Some help.

I have used ini_set('session.cookie_lifetime', 0); in my configuration file.

But it is not helping me to destroy session on browser close.

Application current flow:

1) In authentication page if user is valid, generate new session identifier using session_regenerate_id(true);

2) Control goes to welcome.php where i start new session using session_start();

3) in logout page code is

      $_SESSION = array();
      if (ini_get("session.use_cookies")) {
        $params = session_get_cookie_params();
        setcookie(session_name(), '', time() - 42000,
        $params["path"], $params["domain"],
        $params["secure"], $params["httponly"]
      );
     }
    // Finally, destroy the session.
    session_destroy();

This might help you,

session_set_cookie_params(0);
session_start();

Your session cookie will be destroyed... so your session will be good until the browser is open. please view http://www.php.net//manual/en/function.session-set-cookie-params.php this may help you.

The best way is to close the session is: if there is no response for that session after particular interval of time. then close. Please see this post and I hope it will resolve the issue. "How to change the session timeout in PHP?"
