Active Server Pages (ASP)

Specifying Session Timeout

Use the Session.Timeout statement to view and change timeout settings for each session. The following statement displays the number of minutes a session currently remains in server memory (the default is usually 20 minutes):

<HTML>

<BODY>

<% Response.Write(Session.Timeout)%>

</BODY>

</HTML>

You may want to shorten the timeout period to increase security on your site; for example, you may want the site to "log out" for the user after 5 minutes of inactivity:

<HTML>

<BODY>

<%

Session.Timeout=5

%>

</BODY>

</HTML>

Abandoning the Session

When a user logs out of the site, you can use the Session.Abandon statement to end the session immediately, thus freeing server resources:

<HTML>

<BODY>

<% Session.Abandon %>

<p>Thank you for visiting!</p>

</BODY>

</HTML>
