User API documentation?

Members Thanked: 12 mal	Hey guys, I'm writing a notifications module which I am hoping will work similar to Facebook's system. Currently, notifications are stored in the database and it has a very simple system to show notifications, similar to when you get a new private message. I have a notification JS script to "pop up" the notification. I would like to know how I can get these to pop up if the user is logged in, or to wait for the user to log in before it springs into action. I was looking for some more information on the user API as I was thinking maybe I can do this with cookies? Thanks in advance. Luke.
