The following is a link to the javascript stuff I had referred

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but there is no such thing, and
indeed, there cannot be!
That javascript code runs *in the user's browser", and so can easily
keep track of idle time. or remaining time
Your LC code can only run on the server. And on the server, all you can
do is - at the start of responding to a request - check how long it has
been since the previous request from same user.
So that requires some storage between requests - whether in a database,
or via cookie / session variable.
