RE: disconnect

[Alan Inser]

Hello,   With our application I use frames and the main frameset uses the event onUnload.   This event is called when the user does the following to close the browser (for Internet Explorer and Netscape):   ALT-F4 (on Windows), or menu File | Close/Exit, or double-click on the system menu, or click on the "X" close button or kill the browser with the task manager.   . . . function closeTest() {     if (self.isLogged) {         window.open(URL, 'Logout', 'height=30,width=300,status=no,menubar=no,locationbar=no,location=no,title=no,resizable=no')  } . . . self.isLogged = true; <frameset cols="100,*" border="0" > . . . </frameset> But if the browser or the system crashed, there is no way to catch this event ... :-)   Our goal was to catch the close event and then open a popup windows telling that the user has been disconnected. There is no way to prevent the window to be closed.     -----Original Message----- From: Rakesh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, July 17, 2001 3:19 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: disconnect I am not sure if this question belongs here.   I have a web app (in struts). I need to expire the session if the user gets disconnected (and does not close the browser window). Any hints on how this is to be done ?        Rakesh Ayilliath (Software Engineer)   Synergy IT Innovations Pvt Ltd, #196, 1st Floor, 9th Cross, HMT Layout, RT Nagar Bangalore 560032   [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.ayilliath.8m.com
