 Track User information Hi Guys, I want to track the user's login and logout time by storing values into DB for showing the user status. While clicking signout properly, then no problems for me to track. When the window is closed due to various reasons, is there any chance to track in either Javascript or PHP? and while changing the url other than my sites also get tracking. This will help me to complete my tasks

 Re: Track User information Hi Jeyaseelansarc You are tracking the user login and logout on your tracking system thats fine. My suggestion is update the member’s last transaction time on your tracking system. When you need to show the member status, compare this last transaction and logout time with current time then you can identify the status (active or idle)Is this helpful? Thanks -Kathir |

| Re: Track User information Hi Kathir, Thank you for the answer. As u said each and every time we track entire page and update the transaction date. It will work fine. I will try with this way and let u know u after

| Re: Track User information Hi, we can make use java script events, in the body element(unload event) we can write ajax code which updated the status in the current user in the unload event. if u found any good solution, please post it. Regards, Vivekanandan |

| Re: Track User information Hi, thanks for replying. I have thought of solution to track the user's online as follows 1. In body onload call a function to track the every transaction user makes on ur site. 2. While checking user's online checking for proper logout time, if exists then the user should be offline. if not then get transaction date and compare with current date if the difference exceed the limit u fixed, then user should be out of ur site, then u came to know that the user is offline. I have to follow these steps. Is there any change needed?

| Re: Track User information hi..... if user closed the browser the unload event will not help you to track the user..because if u referesh the page also unload event will fire.. Below code is helpful to track the user while closing the browser I have done the user tracking by .. <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- function closeWindow(evt) { var e = (window.event) ? window.event : evt; if (e.clientX < 0 && e.clientY < 0) { (new Image()).src="logout.php?value=0"; alert("logout") } return true; } // --> </script> </head> <body onunload="closeWindow(event)" > but it works only in IE...not FF Last edited by kingmaker : 08-03-2007 at 05:01 AM. |

| Re: Track User information hi, i have already tried this! As you said it is working fine on IE while close the browse window, but when i have tested for this while the user click browser back button, it does not support. But i need to support both the browser (IE and FF) Another issue for this is when the user change the url from address bar then how can we track the user login?

| Re: Track User information hi Jeyaseelan, Yes, to solve out this problem you need to update the time whenever the page gets navigated. From the last navigated time you can compare the time with the current time. If the duration exceeds the time u fixed, then the user might have closed page or the session might have expired. From this you can check whether the user is online or the logout time.

| Re: Track User information Hi Anand, Thanks for your reply. I have already done the same way which you have given here. This is working fine now. But if we have the better solution to track online and offline users, thats helping us. Using ajax call i am storing the transaction date in DB.
