There are classes on phpclasses.org that attempt to do this. It's been discussed MANY times before.
There are a couple of methods: 1. sessions -- count your active sessions 2. counters -- each time a page is acessed, log it with a time stamp... after 30 seconds (or whatever you decide is enuff time), delete it... the total count of logged requests is a rough guide to how many people are online... 3. a combination of the two... you can use the session id to ensure that if one user visits 8 pages in 30 seconds, it doesn't appear that he/she is 8 users instead of one. Seriously, check the archives, dig around phpclasses... i know it's been done to death :) Justin on 25/10/02 5:01 AM, Plasje ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: > Hi there, > > After a long search I still have the problem getting the amount of users > that is logged in on a specific moment. > > Can anybody help me out on which function or variable to use? > > Thanks in advance > > Robert > > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
