Hi Christian, this is exactly what session timeouts are made for. HTTP is request-response based, ie. a statusless protocol, so if the user doesn't log out as designed (giving your app a chance to call session.invalidate() somewhere), there is no means to tell if he is still connected or not. As the session state is kept on the server, an indication that the session may have come to an end is the interval of activity between two requests (or: the lack of another request, in this case). You can specify the interval in question in web.xml or by calling setMaxInactiveInterval() somewhere in you code.
