Sockets

I thought of using exec to ping the users ip but not all users are pingable, is that statement true?

 

If it really isn't possible, then an automatic timeout if the user does nothing for 30 minutes is the best method?

 

What about HTML5 Sockets? Again though, not all browsers support HTML5 :(

 

There's lots of weird little hacky methods, but nothing that is reliable and therefore not using.

 

The only way to do it is to use assume they are no longer on the website if the last_active flag is X minutes old. 30 minutes sounds kind of high, especially for an AJAX chat.
