Detecting Browser exit in PHP
browser, php
Solution
PHP is a server side language. Browser events are handled by DOM events. On "onunload" or "onbeforeunload" events, sending an AJAX call to a PHP file.
And in this other question there is a flavored explanation of what I'm saying.
Problem
I have looked at a few topics (here & google) regarding detecting browser exit in php and im not really any clearer on how to do so. I tried the `register_shutdown_function` in PHP but that was executing even when i refreshed the browser page. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance
