The below code is general and not for cakePHP specific alone.

While redirecting, you need to add some querystring in params. like, if your login.php then

header("location:login.php?response=1");

and you need to read in login.php like this

if (isset ($_GET['response']))
{
    if ($_GET['response']=="1")
    {
      echo "Successfully logged out";
    }
}

Have a look at http://book.cakephp.org/view/1313/setFlash. The setFlash function of the Session component was designed for this!

In the original controller action: $this->Session->setFlash('Example message text');

In the view of the other action: echo $session->flash();
