I've been playing with this for a while...maybe it'll help
Create an include file, or add this code to an include file that's in the
pages where you need the timeout...
Whatever the session timeout setting is say 10 mins
Response.write out the open and close script tags and javascript function.
BEGIN SCRIPT TAG
function TimeOutUser(){
window.location.href="page to goto on timeout"
}
function ResetTimer(){
window.clearTimeout(logoutTimer)
var eventTime = new Date()
logoutTimer = window.setTimeout('TimeOutUser()', 600000)
}
END SCRIPT TAG
In the body tag put an onLoad="ResetTimer()"
So the timer gets reset when the page loads, you just have to remember that
the javascript time is in milliseconds, so you have to multiply up from
minutes..
Each time the user goes to a new page, the js timer is reset, and so is the
session timer on the server (there may be a difference of a couple of
seconds depending how long it takes the pages to load) so both are just
about in sync.

The server doesn't send an event to the browser. Would be
nice in theory if it did. So putting a redirect in the OnEnd event
will not work, and probably did not work for those who you
said you saw put in their pages.
