Many people have tutorials out there that allow you to count the number of active users online with the use of the global ASA file; however, they do not show you the user's location and "what they are doing".
i.e, going to your users_online.asp page may show the following:
Now, on EVERY PAGE, you should add this code:
On the page right after a user logs in, replace the above code with: (this will check to see if the Session exists, and if not, add it to the database)
Note how we're calling 2 procedures. Finally, on the page you use to log a user out, replace the first instance of the code above with :
This calls 2 procedures as well and updates the user to be LOGGING OUT and then removes them from the database (all done when the session EXPIRES, not when the user uses our LOGOUT system) Also note that you can use:
<%= Application("usersOnline")%> to show # of active sessions open
and
<%= Application("visits")%> to show the total times the server's been visited.

Great
Great tutorial. Just one thing would have make things lot easier for the newbies. I can imagine that volks will have some problems in implementing the script so why not provide them the files and the database. Then things will be lot more easier to understand.
Anyways thanxalot finally i got it workin, was lookin for this for a long time.
