CGI Cookies
I need help with cookies. I am writing a forum, and I can't find any useful cookie tutorials on-line (all Perl) and I am not sure I even want to use cookies. You see, I want to know when a user enters or leaves the site, knowing when he enters isn't that hard, but how do I tell when he leaves??? I want this so I can say, %d users currently browsing this forum... and also for other resons. So basically, I want the cookie to store only the users name, and maybe one or two more values, then I want to somehow be notified when the user leaves the forum, or site. I am writing my forum in C, I know Python, and HTML (not very good at html though). I know nothing of Java-script, or any imbeded langauge like that. What do I do?
Please Help!!!
