I don't know... There are times where I have completely forgotten about the fact I was writing a post to begin with... so many hours went by before I got back to it. I would still have the problem if I left it longer than the session was set for... I would still have to copy everything over to an external editor just in case, while I log back in.
I think the best solution is to just not walk off and leave a post open in mid-edit :) But I could employ a couple of other measures, like auto-saving the post, or using ajax to keep the session alive. I think auto-saving might be the best option, since it will save the post but the session will time out, that way nobody could sit down at my computer while I am logged in as admin to the site, but I don't lose what I was working on. -Thadeus On Wed, Jan 6, 2010 at 5:08 PM, Richard <richar...@gmail.com> wrote: > how about setting a huge timeout? > > > On Jan 7, 7:45 am, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: >> ajax calls to keep session alive >> >> On Jan 6, 2:02 pm, Thadeus Burgess <thade...@thadeusb.com> wrote: >> >> >> >> > (this) being using ajax calls or (this) being keeping the session alive? >> >> > -Thadeus >> >> > On Wed, Jan 6, 2010 at 1:53 PM, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: >> > > kpax does this. >> >> > > On Jan 6, 11:56 am, Thadeus Burgess <thade...@thadeusb.com> wrote: >> > >> So I have my blog... and I'm writing a post, and I walk off and leave >> > >> it, come back to post, and of course my session has expired. >> >> > >> What is the best way to keep this session alive?
