| 56104 | 2002-07-01 23:06:00 | ok bruce....what do you call a session? and does it involve drinking? | tweak'e (174) | ||
| 56105 | 2002-07-01 23:21:00 | Not while on duty. Technically, a session is (I believe, not an expert on this), any time the browser is frired up. So that if you leave PressF1 and go somewhere else then come back, it is still the same browser session. But if you shut the browser down, then restart, you've got a new session. Session-based cookies (the temp ones) use this, as I understand it. That's why you can log in to a site, go somewhere else, come back and find you are still logged in. I think you can then build in things to cookies so that sessions have a time-out period (inactivity?). But I'm kinda guessing on that. We looked at trying to improve the red dots so they woulf be more interactive - ie chnage within your browsing session - but it got horrendously complicated so we decided to stick with the default functionality that came with them. There were other things we could do that had a better pay off in terms of usability. |

| 56106 | 2002-07-02 00:03:00 | normally what happens is when you brose another site then go straight back to pressf1 the post that you had read before still have the red dot. no real problem, my memory can last a few minutes ;-) however this time its the opposite, new posts didn't have dots, like it thinks i've already veiwed them. is the dots 'controlled' by veiwing main page or change to read after you have veiw that post it self? | tweak'e (174) | ||
| 56107 | 2002-07-02 01:34:00 | I think it would be very nice to have it so that the cookie worked on actual threads that you have accessed. But I presume that it would take a lot of work to get it like that. What a lot of forums have is a Mark All Read button, that basically resets the cookie (I think). It's really handy becasue it saves having to close the browser all the time. As for what a session is - it usually involves the passing around of a green substance. Not drinking. |
