[opencms-dev] Redirecting to Index page if the user logs out in a protected page

[Pujan Kafle]

Hi Paul,

Thank you for your reply. But there are some pages in the website as 
well which are accessible to all. In such cases, when the user logs out, 
user should stay in the same page(the login area would now show username 
and password textboxes).

So, depending on the permissions of the page in which the user logs out, 
the user would be redirected to the index page using the way you 
suggested or no redirection would occur if the page is public.

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Pujan
