mpsn Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hi, when a user logs out, I want to store the last activity in for the user. I have a db table users: userID userName userPassword lastSession lastActivity ===== ======= ========== ======== ======= 1 bob password 2011-08-09 About.html 2 dre passwords 2011-09-23 Home.php here is logout script: =============== <?php //run this script only if the logout button has been clicked if(array_key_exists('logout', $_POST)) { require("connect.inc"); $username=$_POST["username"]; $updateLastSessionQuery=mysql_query("UPDATE users SET lastSession=NOW() WHERE userName='$username'"); // end session and redirect //empty the $_SESSION array $_SESSION = array(); session_destroy(); header("Location: xmlShredderLogin.php"); exit; }//END IF for when logout submitted ?> here is Index.php: ============= <?php session_start(); if(isset($_SESSION["isAuthenticated"])) { require("logout.inc.php"); $username=$_POST["username"]; //print $username."<br />"; print ' <html> <head><title>Home</title></head> <body> <form id="logoutForm" name="logoutForm" method="post" action=""> <input name="logout" type="submit" id="logout" value="Log out" /> <input type="hidden" name="usernameHidden" value='; print$username; print '/> </form>'; mysql_connect("localhost","root"); mysql_select_db("someDB"); $getUserInfoQuery=mysql_query("SELECT lastSession,lastActivity FROM users WHERE userName='$userName'"); $getUserInfo=mysql_fetch_assoc($getUserInfoQuery); print "Last session: ".$getUserInfo["lastSession"]."<br />"; print "Last activity: ".$getUserInfo["lastActivity"]."<br />"; Let's say the last page the user is on is Index.php, so what do I use to track the last page they are on?? I can't user a form b/c if I have to type in the last activity, that's nonsense! So far I have only figured out how to store the current time in last session (but this doesn't work either). I just want to track the last page and then have a switch such as: switch(type) case 1: $lastActivity="About.html"; case 2: $lastActivity="somethingelse.php"; Any help much appreciated!
