Hi,

I am having one application in vs 2005 and in that,

i want to set the session time out and the application should be redirected to the login page on session timeout?

i am very new to this concept.please explain it and help me.

Thanks

chit

create a class which check about session value.

1.  if you want to redirect on post back then check this class value on page load.. and if found session null then redirect.
2. now if you want it work automatically.. use Ajax timer control of asp.net and keep it in a user control and use this control on each page..

cheers

Hi,

 I would like to follow your first point and sorry i am not getting that.

can you explian the way to do?.

which class value i have to check?on which page's lad event?

Plzzz help me

cheers

Use this in a new clas in your asp.net project

using System.Web;

public static class SessionCheck

here,where u r specifying to redirect to login page?

can u correct my code..plzzzz

this is the one given in web.config file

</sessionState>

</compilation>

</authentication>

and i have created one global.asax file(since it is not displaying by default).

then ,in Global.asax,the code is like

dear..

this will never work..

because..global.asax is only 1 for every web site..

but there can be many instances on 1000'nds of browser..

so which browser will be redirected. have a think..

now take a scenario that we both are logged in to the same site.. but if ur session has expired then why i should logout.

to do it automatically.. you have to put ASP.net AJAX timer control..

apart from that i don't think there is any way by which you can redirect.. untill and unless you will do some request to ur server.

ok thanks,

then, is there any other way to do this without using ajax timer?.

plzzz help me. ASAP

it is urgent

cheers

Hi

what u need to do is. chek for the session using the above said method and redirect if the returned values is false.

if(SessionCheck.Session("Give your Session Value")==false)

{

}

Place the above code in the page load event

this is what i am trying to explain.. thatis why i wrote that class..

because untill and unless any request will made to server ... server will not able to work out.. that what to do in session end..

or if you know.. old javascript style ajax.. you can also do in that way... but .. if you use page_load solution.. then it will be fast and easy to complete ur requirment.

hi,

Session("Give your Session Value") means what?

where i have to give?

in global.asax file?

please can u explain it with my code which i have given in the previous mail??

ok i have created a new class and placed the code which you have given inside that class.

then the remainind section i am not getting.page load of which page?

if it is in any page also,it should work.

I ma having one main page and am dividing it int 3iframes.so load event of which page i shoul write?

i am callig pages dynamically in these frames depends on the requirements.

then one more thing is,in,SessionCheck.Session("Give your Session Value"). ,what is the session value?

cheers

buddy, this you have to deciede that where you want to put your login of logout.. but normally every page should check session values if session dependent... so you can put this check in every page..

or create one usercontrol. put this on user control.. and then call that user control on each page..

:)

Ok chitra.

Let us say your website has alogin page. After succesful login you may be setting the logged in users detail in session like this.

Session["loggedinuser"] = "chitra";

so what u neednow is swhen the user is idle for a long time you want to redirect him to a differnt page. The class given by bluearc will check whether the session variable exists or not. THe session value is actually the name of session you give. In my example I have given it as loggedinuser.

So in the page load of your main page you have to give something like this.

Hi I have created one class like this

using System;

using System.Data;

using System.Configuration;

using System.Web;

using System.Web.Security;

using System.Web.UI;

using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;

using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;

/// Summary description for SessionCheck

/// </summary>

public static class SessionCheck

then also it is not working.

in my web.config file i have given the timeout as 2(just for sample).

is there any wrong code in my web.config?

why it is not working?

where is the error
