hello.
I'm building a site using php I have a setup.php page wich has at the
begining session_start();
and every single page from my site includes setup.php. When a user
registers I save in $_SESSION["Login"] the userName, so that when !
isset($_SESSION["Login"]) I can redirect him to the login.php page.
After some inactivityperiod, e.g. 20 min, I need that user to be
automatically logged off. Besides I need to keep track of the users
that are online in that moment, so the logout should run some server-
side script too. Can anyone give me some ideas??

You could save the username as a cookie and set a expiry time e.g
setcookie("username", "user", "/", "EXPIRY TIME");

Then for each page they load do a setcookie to keep it refreshed with
the timelimit.
