One approach would be to not let the session timeout.  The 2.3 servlet
spec. allows you to set the timeout to -1, which means the session will
never expire.

        Hi there, you probably have heard this question a million times
before, but
        I couldn't really find anything in the archive which answered
it.  So here
        it goes:
        
        We have an application for which we would like to use struts.
This
        aplication allows users to enter performance evaluation
information on
        employees in the firm.
        
        I would like to know this:  The user starts a performance
evaluation, and
        half way through decides to go grab a bite to eat, comes back
and finshes
        the evaluation, when he/she hits the "save evaluation button"
their session
        is going to be kaput.  Let's assume that the evaluation is a
wizard type
        application and relied heavily on an ActionForm class to store
the
        information entered on each page.
        
        How do you overcome this problem?  Make sure to store all their
previously
        entered performance evaluation data in a hidden field on the
client side?
        
        Any help would be greatly appreciated.
