----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew Spear" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> What if instead of calling a JS dialog, you call a pop-up page. That would request a page from the server, thus automatically refreshing the session. ---------------------------
Maybe, yeah... you click a button, it launches a window, goes to a dummy page on the site, and onload="self.close()" Well, despite my hatred of frames, I think for a private CMS they are the more elegant solution. BTW, the JS alert idea was for when the counter reached 0, not for manually refreshing the session. Seemed like the best way of warning the user to copy/paste form info they might lose before logging back in again - they can't actually do anything on the page until they click OK. Unless you were thinking of auto-refreshing the session with a pop-up window when the session times out.... Hadn't thought of that. It means there's the security risk if someone leaves the page open on their desktop and wanders off, if they're in a shared space. The session will perpetually refresh itself... Would only be secure in timing out if they closed the browser down. Well, as I said, this is all in my head at the moment, the proof of the pudding and all that... Will let you know how it goes! - Gyrus ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - [EMAIL PROTECTED] work: http://www.tengai.co.uk play: http://www.norlonto.net - PGP key available ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ______________________________________________________________________ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
