session

[Kendel]

Hi All,


I set this in my web.xml

<session-config>
	<session-timeout>10</session-timeout>
</session-config>

On my page, I use meta tag to refresh the page at the 11th minute, and check:

<%if (session.getAttribute("UserName")==null)
	response.sendRedirect("index.jsp");
%>

It should send user back to login page because the session has expired but it didn't. What am I missing here? Can someone please help? Thanks.

There was no activity during 11 minutes testing.

OK, it will work if I add:
session.setMaxInactiveInterval(10);
Now, how can I detect the session timeout automatically? I don't want to use meta refresh because sometime it take a while for the page to reload.

Thanks.
