Hi,

I read through the posts and there is suggestion about using "refresh" to 
avoid session timeout (shown in the following):

<META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="<%=60*session.timeout -10%>;
URL=http://www.sample.com/next.htm">

I just have a question about it. So 10 seconds before the session timeout, 
the page will be ased from the server again. Will it start a new session, 
or just extend this session to another 20 minutes(assuming using default 
session timeout property)? 

Thanks,
Cindy 

Hi Cindy,

It will extend the current session. Otherwise, why bother with trying to 
avoid a session timeout?
As long as the session hasn't been ended, any page that is requested will 
extend the session with another period of time.


Cheers,

Imar

Imar:

you're right. I was wondering and want to make sure.

I am done this ASP project --- My very first and maybe the only ASP 
project in the next several months. And now I am back to my C programming.
Thanks very much for all of your help.


See you in a while.
Cindy

Bye. Have fun programming C......

Regards,


Imar
