Re: Counting online user - w/o global.asa

if i choose to use the global.asa way.

what happen if the user close the browser, does the Sub Session_OnEnd will still be run, and the application("users") variable will be decremented ?

thanks in advance.

Hi thesti,

Yes, if the user closes the browser by clicking the cross or using Alt-F4 the Session_OnEnd event will fire.

I'm sorry but I don't know any other way of counting the number of current users although that doesn't mean that there isn't one.

Is there a particular reason why you didn't want to use the Global.asa method?
