Need to implement Session time out in PHP code

[sudeep naayak]

Hay there

I have tried with the following code

<?php   
session_start();
$session_life = time() - $_SESSION['start'];
    if($session_life > $inactive)    
          {         
              session_destroy(); header("Location: error.php");   
          }
?>

This code I used at the scratch of my code.

Its not working. I dont have the access to php.ini at my server.

Can anybody help me out.

you can view the settings of php.ini using "echo phpinfo()".

Thanks K. Tsang

I tried it in another way and it worked.

<?php
      session_cache_expire( 10 );
session_start();
$inactive = 600;
if(isset($_SESSION['start']) ) {
	$session_life = time() - $_SESSION['start'];
	if($session_life > $inactive)
    {
        $_SESSION["logged_in"] = false;$_SESSION["username"]="";
        $_SESSION["errmsg"]="Session Expired";
		header("Location: error.php");
	}
}
$_SESSION['start'] = time();
?>

By the way thanks for your attention and valuable time.
