Dimas,
An automatic logout after
a certain amount of idle time is one method. Most chat servers
automatically logout and disconnect idle connections, so emulating this may not
be a bad idea. There may be a way to detect that a user left the page, but
if there is, I don't know about it.

user leaves
Hi all. I'm from Braz
I'm writing a simple web chat and trying to
do that in mod_perl. The script is very simple, it reads a text
file with the messages and print the messages in a frame. It
enters in a loop that only ends when the user send a lougout to the script. The
problem that i'm havingis that if the user simply leaves the pages without
clicking in logout the scripts keep running and running and don't die. How can i
detect that the user leaved the script?
