I have an application that, after 20 mins of idle (detected by JS), the user is given a warning saying they are about to be logged out with a link to keep the session going. My original plan was to sent an AJAX request to a page when the link is clicked, but I have read that an AJAX request will not keep the session alive. Redirecting off the page is out of the question.
While I was googling I found that in .NET you can actually reset the under-the-hood session timeout timer. I was wondering if there is anything like this in CF, or if what I read was wrong and you actually can keep the session alive with an AJAX request. Another thought I had was to do the AJAX request to a page that would perform a CFHTTP internally as well. Maybe someone has some first hand experience they can lend me. Oh, and I am using CF8 on Windows 2008 Server. thanks! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
