Hi,

I have a requirement to force a portal session timeout when one of our backe
nd applications times out (which is variable). I am able to receive a timeou
t message from the backend application but can't see how to force the portal
 timeout. At the moment we
just call LogoutUser... but we want to show the user the 'your session has t
imed out' etc...

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Christina

You'll have to detect that the session is expired on the next user interatio
n with the server as HTTP is not a constantly connected protocol.

You'll have to do this in your code and redirect to the desired page.

Thanks John, but the problem is not in the detection of session timeout. The
 problem I'm facing is how do I force the session to timeout?
