Hi, Any help with the following is appreciated. I want to use php to store the time that a user spent on 1 particular webpage in a mysql database. What I'm trying to do now is:
1) using Javascript's OnLoad event I read out the time when the user 1st opens the webpage 2) using Javascript's OnUnLoad event I read out the time when the user leaves the webpage 3) in the same OnUnLoad event I open a new browser window using: test.php?time=xxx, where xxx is the time difference between steps 1 and 2. 4) In the newly opened browser window I use $_GET['time'] to read out the time in PHP and then write it to the database. 5) using Javascript's OnLoad event for this situation, I close the window that I temporarily opened. In a nutshell, I am opening a second window, pass on the information on the url, and then write it to the database, and finally closing the second window again. Not the most elegant and efficient solution and I'm hoping someone has a better suggestion/example. Perhaps something with PHP's sessionid timeout is possible?
