Hbelkin Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 When a user logs in and starts shopping/browsing but gets interrupted by let's say a phone call, their session can time out. (I believe this is a server-level php setting). I don't mind this, but I do mind that there is no indication to the user that their session has ended. I would very much like to "trap" the timeout and go to a page letting them know that the session has timed out and they need to log in again, or (better) pop up a small window asking them if they'd like to continue (to reset the counter). Anyone know how (and where!) to do this? Thanks! PS: Not sure if the timeout is "Activity based" (so a mouse movement would keep the timer alive), or if a page change is needed to keep it alive. If it is a page change, I suppose I could use my own "timeout function" to start on page load, use a shorter threshold than the actual php timeout, and pop up a window...??
