Hi Jagdeep,
I know it has been a while now, but I thought I'd let you know.
Setting up a database with a session login and some checks and balances will allow you to do
what you were wanting with controlling a user using multiple browsers on the same machine.
I just finished my login system and it is set up with a session that checks the login status of a user
on every page they go to. I was testing to see how some css was working on one of the user info pages,
and so I was already logged into the account on safari, I then went to Opera and Firefox and tried to view the page I
was on and they told me I was not logged in. I also tried logging in on those browsers and it did not let me.
Hence, I know now it is possible to achieve the results your looking for.
I just built a query to an ACTIVE_USERS table in my database on the login page and a session check when each page was visited.
When a user successfully logs into the system, their username and time of login get stamped in this ACTIVE_USERS table for you to check against.
You could even put a field in this table that stamps what page they are on. JAT
Don't know if you still need help with this or not, but thought I'd let you know what I found out.
Best,
