Hello CFAussie,
User logs in, meta-refresh sets to 5 mins (logs user out if left more than 5 mins eg.
if they go to lunch and did not log out).
If they close the browser it ENDS the SESSION (eg. If Joe has admin rights to see
certain files and just closes the browser window and walks out the office, Bob who
only has User rights goes onto Joe's computer types the URL and bingo he has admin
rights cause the session is still active..)
I tried OnUnload in the body tag but EVERY page I goto on the site brings the alert
up...
Hope this helps?
Carl
Original Message:
will using the page event OnPageUnload() be better to use for the alert? It might not
be triggered by the refresh (can't try it ATM)
<body OnPageUnload="alert('do you really want to go?')"> (I think)
let me understand this. you're using the meta-refresh to keep the user logged on and
you only want their session to die when they close the browser. you _don't_ want the
session to end via timeouts? (how about if they navigate away?)
Is this to counter CF's sticky sessions (leave and come back) so they HAVE to log in
again?
