Problem in calling ExitHandler during logoff on windows 98

[nikhil_no_1]

Hi,

I have an application that opens a IE window, navigates to a URL, logs in the user to a device and keeps running in the background

What I want to achieve is, when the user does windows log off, the ExitHandler of my program should get called and in that I want to navigate to some other URL in the existing IE window to logout the user from the device.

Now on Win XP, this thing works fine, but on Windows 98 machine, this doesn't work.

Navigating to the URL takes around 7-8 seconds to succeed.

This is my exit function

Func MyExitFunction ( )

LogMessage("MyExitFunction Called")

If WinExists($LogoutWindowTitleStr,"") Then

LogMessage("Navigating to URL: " & $logoutURL)

_IENavigate ($o_IE, $logoutURL)

FileDelete($SessionIDFileName)

LogMessage("Session ID file deleted.")

_IEQuit ($o_IE)

LogMessage("Logout Done.")

EndIf

EndFunc

I am getting "Logout Done" message in the log file, but navigation to the URL does not seem to complete as the user is not getting logged out of the device.

However during program exit, the ExitHandler gets called and logoff happens successfully.

Can anybody pls help me here?

-Thanks in advance,

Nikhil

What IE version are you using on 9x?

What IE version are you using on 9x?

Am using IE 6.0.

But does this matter?

I read somewhere that 98, NT, ME do not have a mechanism of calling log off script. Does this mean that logoff time we cannot control anything?

Alternatively what I thought was, if somehow I can catch the windows logoff event, ignore it, call my exithandler and then call windows logoff. But I couldn't find anything to do such a thing.
