You CAN and it's done with session_set_cookie_parameters or in php.ini... But keep in mind that session timeout relies on the SERVER and the CLIENT both having their clocks set correctly. One would hope that one's server has the correct time, but there's really not much bank in relying on end user computers to have the corret time. So if the time of the logging out really matters, store their last usage time in their $_SESSION or in a cookie or something and do your own date-time calculations, completely independent of the client or even server datetime setting. -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
