does any know to get seesion info?

there user name.

You cant exactly do this just with sessions. You will need to store the information by using either a Database or File.

Database is easiest. Do a search on users online

I kinda figured that so, I have included a update staement to my users table to set to yes when they login and a nother when (If) they loggout . However, most people don't actually logout trhey just close the window what can I do about this.

You should store the session data in a seperate table.

example table design

sessid | arrivaltime | lastactive | userid

Keep updating the lastactive. And every 5mins if there is no activity for a URL get the userid, delete the row update the user table to no for online.

sounds perfect are the varibles you stated always available within a session?

I never relized that.

so I should be able to echo these variables while in a session?

I'll give it a go. Thank you very much I have been looking for session information for sometime with much luck.
