You could write the session id into a table when the session is started, along with the start time. Something like sessionid CHAR|starttime DATETIME|lastvisittime DATETIME You could then update this table each time the user visits a page, and delete it if the interval between starttime and lastvisittime is longer than you want. A cron job/scheduled task could be used to clean this table up periodically -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
