I don't see how this can happen, other than a javascript timer object.  Each
successive request from the server resets the timer for session timeout.
So, the moment the page does anything (that requires server interaction),
the warning becomes meaningless.

My personal thought is that users would find this more annoying than useful.
But I've been wrong before.

Subject: Impending session timeout warning methods?


Does anyone attempt to warn a user that their session will 
shortly expire? Could javascript with a timer allow popping up a 
window, say, when the session will expire in 2 minutes? Are 
there any better approaches?

TIA,
Stephen
