Hi all. We have a site that takes a login, then sets a cookie to identify the user and control access to various pages. The cookie is set for only 60 minutes, but we reset it each time a new page is accessed so that you will stay logged in as long as you are active. We keep a record of each logged-in user in a database and remove them when they log out, in an attempt to know who is online.
The problem is when someone closes their browser or simply lets the cookie expire, the database is not updated and now holds IDs of non logged-in users. Any creative suggestions as to how to get around this problem? thanks, steve miller ____ � The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM � ____ To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: "set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword" in the body of the email.
