How to automatic redirect if session timeout using ASP.NET 1.1?

 

[Tim Payne]

That's an interesting one, as you can't necessarily guarantee that the
user's still there when the session times out. Can you give a bit more of an
idea of what problem you're trying to solve?

If a session variable contains nothing then you know it has timed out.

Something like :

If Session("MyID") <> "" then
'OK
else
'Timed out
Response.redirect("wherever.aspx")
end if

That can't be done with *any* version of ASP.NET.

What you want to do is impossible.

If the session times out, you can't guarantee that the client
still has his browser opened to a page at your site.

In fact, people seldom do that.
They've likely moved on to some other site way before the session times out.
