Funny you should mention high session time outs. I was given a task by a friend to look at, on something that I did many years ago. Since then they had another developer come in make some changes and the server fell over about 5 times a day, when I looked at it, the session was set to 2 days, I was like WTF...
Change it back to what I had set it at 6 years ago, and 8 months later it hasn't fallen over once. -- Regards, Andrew Scott WebSite: http://www.andyscott.id.au/ Google+: http://plus.google.com/108193156965451149543 On Wed, May 16, 2012 at 3:12 PM, Byron Mann <[email protected]> wrote: > > Note on the wddx, we were doing the same thing.
