Session expired....

[Peter Smith]

Will the below statement returns TRUE or FALSE iif the session is expired?

(Request.UrlReferrer) Is Nothing

I am using ASP.Net 1.1 and IIS 5.0.

Thanks,

Smith

That property is independent of the session as far as I know.

They are independant. The only thing that fiddles with the referrer is the
use who may choose to hide it for privacy reasons.

BTW In the HTTP Standard (at a code-level) referrer is misspelt: 'referer'.

Try this if you want to see if the session has expired. I forgot where I
found this but I thank them just the same!

private void CheckForSessionTimeout(){
if (Context.Session != null){
if (Session.IsNewSession){
string szCookieHeader = Request.Headers["Cookie"];
if ((null != szCookieHeader) &&
(szCookieHeader.IndexOf("ASP.NET_SessionId") >= 0)){
Response.Redirect(this.ResolveUrl("~/sessionTimeout.aspx"));
}
}
}
}
