Well, here's a little script I have used, obviously only works for users with
javascript enabled, but that's a pretty good percentage these days. 'image.cfm'
just needs to be some CF page that sits under your Application.cfm (or .cfc) it
doesn't really need to do much. But the script will make sure it gets called
every 15 minutes and keep the session alive. Obviously you can just put the
actual number of milliseconds in that last statement, rather than writing it
out as I have here.)
//calls a cfm page to refresh the user session every 15 minutes
function keepAlive() {
var imgAlive = new Image();
var d = new Date();
imgAlive.src = 'image.cfm?d=' + d;
}
setInterval('keepAlive()', 15*60*1000);
