temporary-tables

Hi everyone...

While looking for a way to temporarily save the search results when a user searches for a hotel free between particular dates i came across temporary tables.

But certain questions are not answered even in mysql manual.... like...

Will the temporary table be unique for each user that executes the script...? Or will it be overwritten when two different users run the script at the same time...?
When will the table be destroyed..? When the user closes the browser window or just navigates away from the page in which the script runs...?

Thanks for your clarifications...
