There are some javascript tricks that allegedly can be run when the browser window closes. Whether these can notify your application reliably I do not know. I suggest you redo your design so that closing the browser is not your signoff signal.

How about a http-equiv refresh tag that sends a heartbeat from a hidden frame?

I'm sure you can use a javascript function to capture the UnLoad event and then call a page in your server, try this:

<!--

function logOff() {

newWind = window.open ("LogOff_Page.jsp","Mywindow","HEIGHT=100,WIDTH=350")

// this will pop-up a small window, you may decide the size though

}

//-->

</script>

<body onUnload="logOff()")

><-- your page here -->

</body>

if you don't need additional information from the client browser and just want to store data that is allready in the server side, you may choose the notification mechanism that the session object implements - just after the given time of inactivity the session object gets destroyed and at that time the notification handler is calles. just use that mechanism, it's very easy and secure!
