I know that the way PWB works is by having a control window and when that window is closed all other windows are also closed.
The problem I have is that we are running a network through a router with it's own authorization for internet connection. What the router does is forwards the user to the login page if they are not logged in, then (and here is where the problem starts) once you are logged in, and window pops up saying you are logged in, and to log out either click a button in that window or close that window.
I know the last part of that would make you think it would work anyway, except that what happens when you either click the logout button or close the window is it opens another window which attempts the logout.
With PWB if a user logs into the router and then closes the control window, the logout window closes as well, and if the network cannot logout in the tiny window of time that the new window made to logout has, then it stays logged in.
There is an idle timer on the router, except we get complaints that it hasn't logged out and that it ate up [so much] of their time they've paid for.
If anyone can think of a good solution it would really be appreciated.
Any questions and I'll try and clarify.
