> We've probably all read and/or heard about the 12 minute idle timeout on Web messaging and the fact that this limit is hard-coded. My question is this: Is this hard-coded in binary code or HTML code? And if it's in HTML code, where is it and can it in fact be altered? ___________________________ Alan,
That's hard-coded in the iwebmsg binary, so there's no changing it (unless you want to find the characters "12" with a hex editor and change them to something else - J/K everyone, please don't do that). Our Killer templates, being frame based, easily get around the 12 minute session timeout by keeping a hidden frame refreshing, unbeknownst to the user. The refreshing code checks the server for new msgs every X minutes (5 is the default), and updates the counters next to the folder names on the left (like Outlook). Then we have a config that lets you time them out after X minutes of inactivity... the default is 60. When a user pops open a new message composition window, the timer is automatically reset, so they should never get the dreaded lost composition effect when taking too long to compose the perfect email.
