SHUTDOWNLOGOUT Parameter

The SHUTDOWNLOGOUT parameter allows the user to log out of the current session when the client (or browser) shuts down. This parameter is especially useful when Proficy Portal displays are embedded in other applications, to prevent users from running out of available sessions.

Possible Values

SHUTDOWNLOGOUT (none)

SHUTDOWNLOGOUT=true

SHUTDOWNLOGOUT=false

None and true both result in a session logout.

Example 1

The following will force a logout from the session when Internet Explorer closes or when the user navigates away from the page:

http://localhost/ProficyPortal/Default.asp?USER=jsmith&SHUTDOWNLOGOUT

 

http://localhost/ProficyPortal/Default.asp?USER=jsmith&SHUTDOWNLOGOUT=true

Example 2

The following will ensure that the session is not logged out when Internet Explorer closes or when the user navigates away from the page:

http://localhost/ProficyPortal/Default.htm?USER=jsmith&SHUTDOWNLOGOUT=false

 

http://localhost/ProficyPortal/Default.htm?USER=jsmith (do not use the parameter)
