My doGet method is as follows:

  public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req,
                     HttpServletResponse resp)
    throws ServletException, java.io.IOException
  {
      HttpSession session = req.getSession(false);

      if (session == null) {
        // No action was given from a page. Present the
        // initial login page.
        resp.sendRedirect(resp.encodeRedirectUrl(pageLogin));
      }
      else {
        java.io.PrintWriter out =
          new java.io.PrintWriter(resp.getOutputStream());

        // We have a user for the session. Display the
        // main page
        createMain(out,session);
        out.flush();
        out.close();
      }
  }
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
As you can see it basically redirects back to the login screen if the session is null, 
or re-displays the main page if it's active.

Two Critical Questions I need answered:
1.)  If a user's session is null, how do I determine if their session expired OR if 
they just came to the site and haven't started a session yet.
If a user's session timed out, I want to send them to a "session expired" page, versus 
the login page.
2.)  My main page is frame-based.  Whenever the page reloads, it goes to the page that 
I specified in my createMain function.  I want it to stay on the same page that I was 
currently on.  Is there a way?

Your help would be IMMENSELY appreciated.

Thank you!
