Session timeout problem

[kasthala shyam]

Hi all,

We have an application where we have to disable the cookies and use url-rewriting. i want the user to invalidate after some specified time. i have given the <session-timeout> parameter in my web.xml file.

<session-timeout>1</session-timeout>

i have given the value as 1 which means 1 minute. when i click the logout link on the particular jsp page (index.jsp) then i am logging out but i want the user to invalidate when i click on any other link on the page after the session expires (i.e., after 1 minute). But i am not able to invalidate after 1 minute.
Can anyone tell me what should i do?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,


fine...then please check the session in next page(the link page),

if session == null then redirect to some page(jsp) with message

Use setMaxInactiveInterval(int seconds) and in the next page check if session.isNew() if yes process if no proceed.

This is my assumption. You must be having a log out page and one correct page.
If the session is still active when you click on link you should go to correct page
else go to logout page/invalid page. Right?
Then this is the solution.
session.setMaxInactiveInterval(int seconds)
.
.
link.....

At the begning of new page
if (session.isNew())
{
redirect to invalid page
}
else
{
continue with this page
}
