Hello there,
I am a rookie at the CodeCharge Studio programming.
Sorry if this is a basic question, but I am having a lot of trouble to make it out of it.
I am trying to make a simple Logout, but the button I asigned to the action doesn't seem to make anything at all.
I think maybe is that I have to put a valid Parameter Name at the action "Logout".
My question is: What is the name of the HTTP Parameter?
I tried everything there, even the entire URL, but it doesn't seem to work.
Can someone help me with this?
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure it this is what you are after but it may help.
In your Href source add a link parameter, the Type is EXPRESSION, the parameter source = "True" - Include the quotes, name the parameter Logout - no quotes.
In the Form's Page_OnInitializeView add this code
'Logout
If NOT IsEmpty(CCGetParam("Logout", Empty)) Then
CCLogoutUser
End If
'End Logout
All should be well. Good luck!

Buttons only "do something" if they cause a form submit to occur. This
means they have to exist within a <FORM> block (or it has to have the
javascript "submit()" function, referencing some form) in the onclick
(clientside) event.
A Link, on the other hand, requests a page (even itself) and you can attach
a parameter to pass back (which will get you the result/effect described by
smalloy). It's fairly easy to play with CSS appearance attributes to make a
link look like a button, if the plain-text link appearance is a problem for
you.

Thanks to both of you. I have tried with what you both told me, and it still isn't working.
What I am trying to do is to put a "Close Session" button in the header of the project (just for the restricted pages).
I have already created the <FORM> block, and just as you told me, DonB, it looks like it works a little bit (just redirecting to the default page of the project), but it still does not do the logout.
Shouldn't I have to involve some kind of session variables in the Logout action?
The data I am writing as parameters for the Logout action of the button (at the Properties -> Events -> Server -> onclick ->Logout) is:
Parameter Name: Logout
Return Page: ../Default.asp
Page Redirects: True
Is that alright?
Thanks again

Hi,
I recommend that you do not use a button to do the logout because it may require better understanding of how buttons work. If you do want to experiment then don't use any Parameter Name - leave it blank.
The standard method to implement logout functionality is described here:

The Authentication Builder can automatically create the Logout functionality on any page. Then you should only redirect users to that page as described at http://forums.codecharge.com/posts.php?post_id=46206

Thanks a lot, peterr!!!
It worked great.
For now on you will be for me the "SENSEI" 
I agree with the creation of the section "HOW TO DO THING" that LV proposed some time ago.
