Online visitors visible

[Hoefie]

For a portal am looking for something. Since I am a php newbie, could you please explain how i can display the users currently logged in. This will be helpful for me to see who to contact, in case i need to ask them something. Have seen this on different pages on the internet already, so this should be possible.

but only... how?

Any feedback is much apreciated

When a user logs into the db, via cookie or login, then add the user to a db table. Read in the db table to get your list of users...

remember to have some sort of timeout field in the database, then you make your script delete WHERE it has timed out..

look at mysql.org -> time functions..
then you have some, I dont know, maybe 5 minute timeout?
very simple really!

btw. you need to get the remote_addr, but I guess you know that.
