Depending on how you define "inactive" (e.g. no mouse movement, no keypress, etc.) you can have such events trigger a clear timeout to clear any existing timeout, and add a new 20 second timeout. This you can use jQuery for to help make things easier. http://docs.jquery.com/Events On Aug 15, 10:36 am, shaf <shaolinfin...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Guys > > How do I set a timeout in jquery ?
