doug Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 I'm just intigued. I use Firefox with 4 or 5 tabs open at the same time, one of which is this Forum. My query is if I am looged into Windows but switch to another tab and ,obviously, somwhere else, am I still shown as being logged into the Forum?

doug Posted November 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Thought I might be. So folks if you check up on me and see that I'm logged in here I will probably be elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catgate Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 It's a pity Agatha Christie is no more. She surely could have dreamed up a Poirot about such an alibi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 By that logic every time you switch to another tab you are logged out and then when you switch back you are logged back in.I think there is a delay on the forum of 15 minutes, if you don't do anything on the forum (post, read etc) then it will show you as not being present on the board although you may still be logged in.

doug Posted November 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 So, if I'm here, but really somewhere else I could be logged in but out. If I switch back I could still be here but unless I do something I could be logged out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you will have to wait for catgate to answer that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanHo Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 I can't help either - I don't know all the "ins and outs" of the situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hb_Kai Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 I think it would show you as still being logged in because your computer is connected to the host and then to the website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
