From: Ele on 25 Aug 2010 04:37 Hello, I have an ASP.NET (C#) website. The session length is set to 20 minutes. In this website there is an .aspx page (in an IFRAME) that gets automatically reloaded (using a javascript timer) every 5 minutes. However, I noted that using this approach the session never expires, even when the user is away from his computer (because the IFRAME page always refreshes the session). Instead, I need that the session expires after 20 minutes. So I started looking at creating a page that does not update the Session "timer" and found I had to use "EnableSessionState = False" in the @page directtive of the .aspx page that gets reloaded every 5 minutes. However, it does not seem to work, because the session does not expire after 20 minutes. So the question is: how can I create a page that does not refresh the session? Thanks!

I would GUESS that if you refer to session and the session isn't loaded that its loaded on demand at that point - but this is just a GUESS. > So the question is: how can I create a page that does not refresh the > session? > Thanks! A different approach, if you want the session to expire then does this mean that you want the page to stop updating after say 20 minutes? If so you could count the number of times the page has refreshed (possibly by adding a parameter to the refresh url), and simply stop refreshing once you've reached your desired limit. I know this isn't the same as using the session timeout, but it might do the trick. Hope this helps. -- Brian Cryer http://www.cryer.co.uk/brian |
