Session Timeout based on Inactivity

[Philip]

I was able to accomplish session expiration using the notification control set up for my web application thanks to this demo:

http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/notification/examples/sessiontimeout/sessionexpired.aspx

However, this approach is based on a set timeout value and the notification just pops up every timed interval, regardless if the user is active or not. Can the session timeout be set/reset dynamically based on user inactivity? Possibly every time there is an Ajax request call? Some sample codes would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Philip,

You can call the ContinueSession() function that will postpone the appearance of the RadNotification (and, therefore, the redirect) on the event which you consider activity - in the OnResponseEnd for the AjaxManager for example.

Mmm, is this even possible with a master page? i have the RadNotification on the master page, the RadAjaxManager are all on the aspx pages. the continuesession logic is in the master script code, not on the aspx pages. do you have an example of this?

thanks

the content page can have the OnResponseEnd event firing the ContinueSession event that is located in the master page js. so it is possible and works like a charm.
