admin logout & body onunload event

To make my system's admin page safer maybe I should apply
<body onunload=""> somehow so that admin session would be reseted
immediately after user closes the window?

But how to check easily that unloading refers only to
windowclosing, not to following links to other admin subpages?

You don't. If you want the admin session reset, do it on the server with
sessions, not in the browser.

I'm working on an asp.net site and am trying to implement a popup help window. I want the window to close when the user advances to the next page in our application. The thing is, I'm doing this on a component basis and I don't have access to the body tag from within my help component, so I can't add the onunload tag. Is there some other way of achieving what I want? Can I add an eventhandler to the body tag through javascript? Thanks, ...

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has had any luck with trapping the <BODY> onUnload() event in ASP.NET? The thing is, I'm writing code for an Intranet site. The code makes a call to a third-party component (think of it as a lock) when the page loads. Now the OK and Cancel server buttons I can handle and use to release the lock as required. But previously in classic ASP I had been trapping the user hitting the close 'x' button by...

Hi, I am trying to programatically add an "onunload" event handler to the "body" tag of an ASPX page. I am doing this from a Custom Control located on this page. To do this, I added "runat=server" to the body tag, which provides me access to it in the code-behind through a HtmlControl. I can then manipulate the Attributes collection, which is what I needed. So far so good.

Hi all, Currently I use a timestamp to log users out after 15 minutes of inactivity. However I also need to log a user out if they have just left the page. I need to do this because I store current online users in a database, allowing a maximum of 5 users at one time. I have been looking through the php manual and came across session_cache_expire(). This isn't doing what I need either. Am I

How can I trap the user just closing the browser (upper right ) so I can shutdown the Asp.net session properly. Don't really want to wait for the default timeout to occur. I'm using a Master page so it should be easy to logout once I know how to catch the event. Thanks.

Is it possible to add a function call to the onUnload event handler from an external js file, or can this only be done via the body tag? In any case, I presume there can only exist one onUnload event handler, which can naturally include any number of function calls. I have instances of html pages, with an existing onUnload event handlers and those without. I'd like to cover both instances, if possible, so that if there is an

I could not find on the web a complete solution for this task. This is not the perfect solution, because it's doesn't have the ability to log the logout if browser crash or user leave it open while the session time out expires. So, any improvement would be apreciated. 1. Make the system frameable, by creating a frameset page with an unique frame - the system. So the user could navigate through the pages without "leave" the website.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
