hi there is no built in function to get the session has timed out or not. Follow the steps. 1. Setting the max interval the session should be valid .......session.setMaxInactiveInterval(3600) this 3600 = 72 * 1000 milli seconds. 2. fine now u have set the session should exist for 2 hrs 3. Get the time when the page is last accessed 4. Calculate the time difference between when the page is last accsessed and when the page is accessed now . ( For getting the page last accessed ...u have session.getLastAccessesTime() - This will return when he last acessed the poage ) u know how many hrs / mins / secs the session should be valid ...just subtract the current tiume from last acesed time .. u will get a result . check the result with the time u have given for session . If it exceeds ...redirect him . Hope this will help Narayanan. s.w engineer Enhancement Technologies India. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
