Hi Ian,
You might try to use the HttpSessionBindingListener interface. You can
put and object in the session context that implements this interface and
when the session is timed out, it will be notified through a
valueUnbound() call nad inside this method you can remove the entry from
the database table.
I hope this helps,
Dan
