While not comletely foolproof I have done using a cookie that keeps track of the clients view of whether they are logged in or not. If the cookie says they are logged in, but there is no session, then the session has timed out. Just need to set it to something to indicate they are logged in, then remove it when they logout.

I know how to detect if a session no longer exists, but how do you tell if it's timed out (rather than the person closing the browser or logging out)? -- Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com .com,.net,.org domains from AUD$20/Year --------------------------------- Win a castle for NYE with your mates and Yahoo!
