Heath, Opening up a new WINDOW will definitely "ping" the session timeout (assuming that CFID/CFTOKEN are either sent in the URL or passed in via other session management (cookie)).
However, just having a JavaScript pop-up will not do this. Things like the Alert() and Confirm() methods and DHTML pop-up DIVs are purely Client-side and to not affect the server. Hope that helps. ......................

I'm working on an application that has some long forms in which the user could exceed the session time out limit. I'm working on creating a custom tag that will warn the user that there session is about to expire. I want to have a popup open and ask them if they would like to keep working or log out. My question is will opening a popup window reset the session timeout? Heath ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
