Is it possible to create a listener for the session timeout event? This listener would check to see if there is an operation in progress. If there is, reset the timeout counter. If not, let the session expire.

So suppose the timeout in web.xml is 5 minutes. One particular operation takes 10 minutes to complete. Do not expire session. However, if the user is idle when there is NOT a long process running, expire after 5 minutes. Is that what you meant, Eain? -Justin -----Original Message----- From: Fogleson, Allen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 05, 2005 8:57 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: Session Idle That is exactly how the session timeout works. If the user is idle (i.e has not submitted a request in X time) then it is timed out (assuming X is the timeout) otherwise a request acts sort of as a "renew this session for X more minutes" Al -----Original Message----- From: Eain Mat [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 05, 2005 7:32 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Session Idle if i invalidate the session, everything will be destory in the session. I still want the session to keep alive when user is in the middle of their processing operation even the session-timeout is passed. I only want to timeout their session, if they are not doing anything.
