You're right, it is onSessionEnd. I have that working. I'm going to try to see what errors I can get later tonight.
And yes, you're right in that I *should* be using FMS (I'd much rather be!) but my client wants this in CF. The chat actually works pretty well so far aside from this one issue. We're working on a sort of 'long-polling' solution that is pretty snappy for the end user, which might explain why I'm making the call every minute. I might just have to live with a short timeout on the session and handle it that way (which is what I'm doing now). Either way, thanks for your help! john On Jun 14, 2007, at 5:31 PM, Dave Watts wrote: >> Actually in this case, I do need to kill the session.
