Hi session.invalidate() comes to mind...
another way would be to persist the information so far entered (under some artificial key) and use a cookie to reget that key from the user's browser as soon as he comes back. With this you can let the session expire and still have the information ready... hope this helps Alexander -----Original Message----- From: Craig Tataryn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 28, 2002 8:19 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: What happens when our session expires? Thanks! Would there be a way we could manually end a session (i.e. at logoff?)? I would say that at some point (perhaps 24 hours) we would want the session to expire, I imagine if we never expired sessions we would get into some really bad performance issues...
