[plork123]

Hello

I'm using httpsession.setAttrivbute()
setting username, password, loggedon, timeloggedon

I want the session to expire after a set time, can someone show me how to do this?

Also, what is the best way to retrive this information as later down the devleopment stage i want to use the credentials passed through to see if user is allowed to access other parts of the site

Thanks for any help
