I have set up a meta refresh on a page to redirect to a "timeout" page that warns them the session is about to end and they should refresh. When I tested this at 60 seconds it worked just fine. However, I don't want it to refresh/redirect until 18 minutes. But this doesn't seem to work, it never redirects no matter how long I wait.

Here is the code I put in the head tag:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="1080;URL=timeout.asp">
 
You need to stay on this page for 18 minutes without refreshing it manually to make this work. Is that what you have done?
