Try using the JS setTimeout function.
Window.setTimeOut(alert('This page has been idle for 3 minutes'),180000);
180000 corresponds to 3 minutes, since JS measures in milliseconds.  If
you're looking for real idleness, your setTimeout will actually have to be
set every time you focus or blur any element on the page.  So, you'd say
something like:
<Input type="text" name="FormElement" onfocus="doTimeOut();"
onBlur="doTimeOut();">
and your function would be 
var myTimeOut='';
function doTimeOut(){
        if(myTimeOut!=''){
                Window.clearTimeout(myTimeOut)
        }
        myTimeOut=Window.setTimeOut(alert('This page has been idle for 3
minutes'),180000);
Hope that helps,
