Code for Log Out Button Yields Strange URL

According to the codex.. this part:

urlencode($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])

.
is unneeded… if you just wan’t to logout (pasting from wordpress codex)

<a href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/54970/<?php echo wp_logout_url(); ?>" title="Logout">Logout</a>

.

Logout and Redirect to Current Page

<a href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/54970/<?php echo wp_logout_url( get_permalink() ); ?>" title="Logout">Logout</a>

.
Logout and Redirect to Homepage

<a href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/54970/<?php echo wp_logout_url( home_url() ); ?>" title="Logout">Logout</a>

.
Hope this helps… should always check the codex first 😉

Have a gr8 day,
