@Khalid_AliSep 26.2003 — I don't think that will work( or you ca ncount on that solution).

What happens is when a onclose/onunload event is triggered,it does not give any time for browser to execute any other commands.

I see you are using Java,what you can do is keep the session timeout time to a general time limit that will solve this issue

@cup_of_javaauthorSep 27.2003 — I use 10 min for my session timeout. That's Ok.

but since in this system, There would be just one login with any Username, ( ie: system won't accept a logged on username ) and this prevents dual-login.

when somebody ( with any fault or ... ) closes his window, he should wait for 10 min to re-login to system.

i want this event to invalidate the session. ?

i hope i'd clarify the main problem.

@Khalid_AliSep 27.2003 — It may sound,not very nice, but to make a solution thats dependable you will have to ask your users to click a button to logout on the page(sending an explicit request to the server to invalidate the session object)

Success!
