session timeout help

I have a login page which will log an user into an administrator mode if their username and password is correct

e.g.

If User = "Steve" AND Password = steve Then
session("AdminUser")=True
Else
session("AdminUser")=false

My understanding is that the session will eventually timeout. When this happens, is there a way of automating an alert when a session times out? Something along the lines of

Msgbox "Session timed out" & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "Please login again", vbOkOnly, "Admin Mode"

With the OK button click event re-directing to the login page.

Many Thanks

Steve

Hi

You can't access the Response object once the session has timed out, so you would need to do this client side. You would need to do a META REFRESH or Javascript setTimeout or similar

MK

The timeout or the seconds in the META REFRESH should match the session timeout, or preferably exceed it slightly

MK

thansk for that

cheers
