Okay, here's how it works. If you visit any page, that date and time is saved. Anyone who has visited any page in the last 10 minutes is what I called on-line. There is no such thing as 'disconnecting', at least the site doesn't know that. Even the term 'on-line' is a bit misleading. Maybe I should list the people who visited a page within the last one minute, and call those on-line?
About what you're suggesting, just refresh the forum before sending. That way if a name is still within the "on-line" part, you can send your message. This is why I didn't call it "instant message", just "private"... I don't think it's useful for real-time chatting (although it can work that way), but more like personal notes/questions.
I guess I could put the names on the top, but would everyone like that? |
