Answer 1

The code to update the users status could be moved into an include file, something along the lines of this:

$time = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('now -15 minutes'));
$sql = "UPDATE users SET status = 'offline' WHERE last_activity < '{$time}'";

This could then be included on the site home page for example, and is independant of who is actually online.

You would obviously need a column (timestamp would be nice here) to record their activity
