wildteen88 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 not possible. You'll have to use some kind of client language for that, such as javascript. PHP runs on the server. PHP does not listen out for client commands/events. This is what javascript is for.

dbo Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Why not just store the last time some action was taken by the client on your website (accessed a page). At the point they try to access the page again if it's more than the given amount of time force them to login or something. The other alternative is of course javascript, though I'd suggest against it if you can get away with it. Can you describe what it is exactly you're trying to accomplish... what problem rather than asking for a solution to this? It may be such a thing that there are other alternatives that you didn't think of.
