Stop Refreshing

[Monk3h]

How would i stop people from refreshing on my site? Is there somthing i can put in my header so that if some one does refresh it just redirects them to my index.php page?

 

 

Some one is chating by refreshing the same page and i need to stop em ASAP.

I assume you meant 'cheating', but you could create a table that would store people's ip addresses and then create a function that would check to see how many times they've been to your site within so much time (use a timestamp), and if its greater than, lets say, 3, you can use a header("Location: http://"); thingie.

But is there a way to just stop people from being able to refresh?

If you are talking about stoping them from clicking on the little recycle-looking icon in your browser's menu bar, no. There is not. Not with PHP anyways.

 

MAYBE if you got REALLY SUPER fancy with Javascript, you could detect when they click it and return null. I know you can detect stuff like onExit, but I've never seen a refresh-getter-thing, so I honestly don't know. And of course you'd have to get an anti-right click function, though I do not recommened becasue that are soooo flippin annoying.
