@Pedro Thanks for the response. Now I have two questions.
1. How do I get reference of HttpSession? In Wicket I seem to get reference of WebSession. 2. How do I notify the servlet container (I guess Wicket is not in-charge of maintaining the HttpSession), that the user is active? If I make any Http request from client's end (AJAX), even if that request is simply ignored by my application, will that help to keep the session alive? @Steve Yup this will be AJAX. When my solution is ready, will share it, definitely. :) Regards, Apple Grew my blog @ http://blog.applegrew.com/ On Tue, Jan 19, 2010 at 8:57 AM, Steve Swinsburg <steve.swinsb...@gmail.com>wrote: > Presumably, if the user is typing a long document and hasn't clicked on > anything for a while, you'll need to indicate to Wicket/HttpSession > (probably via AJAX), that the session is to be kept alive.
