Is it possible to use JavaScript onUnload function to call a PHP script that triggers session_destroy()?

The issue can be solved by using an AJAX request in the JavaScript onUnload function to call a PHP script that triggers the session_destroy() function. This will ensure that the session is properly destroyed when the user navigates away from the page. 

<?php
session_start();

// Check if session is active
if (isset($_SESSION['user'])) {
    // Unset all session variables
    $_SESSION = array();

    // Destroy the session
    session_destroy();
}
?>
