Anytime I embed php within javascript with the <?php ?> tags the php
executes as soon as the page is loaded. So for instance if I have
something like the following.

//Javascripts
function foo() {
<?php session_destroy(); ?>
}

<input type="button" value="logout" onclick="foo();"/>

The 'session_destyoy()" is called as soon as the page is loaded,
instead of when you click on the button.
