Limiting Number of Browsers Open at the Same Time

Discussions of secure PHP coding. Security in software is important, so don't be afraid to ask. And when answering: be anal. Nitpick. No security vulnerability is too small.

Limiting Number of Browsers Open at the Same Time

Post by tonyacunar »

Hello,

I have a website where I do queries, and unfortunately if I have two browsers open I get some issues with the data. I have decided that I dont want two browsers+ from the same user on my website. Is there any way to limit this?
thanks
-Jose

I'm not aware of any way for PHP to detect that there is two windows. Javascript (maybe) but it's really limited if it didn't create the window.

Sounds like you're passing information in the URL that could (should?) be stored in a session variable.

Cheers,
Kieran
