Session Timeout..

[Benjamin Smith]

When the session times out, I would like to navigate to the login page.
Currently when the session times out, the displayed screen remains visible
on the screen however when the user clicks on the screen will take to the
login page.

How to do that?

You could try using the javascript setTimeout function set to 20 minutes
(the default session timeout period) and then set the
document.location.href='login.aspx' via client side code.
Here's an example of using the javascript setTimeout function:

Steve gave you the answer. In more detail:

Session times out (by default) 20 minutes after the last Request was
received by the client browser instance holding that SessionID in a
temporary cookie. As no request is received on the server, no response can
be sent to the client. Therefore, the redirect MUST occur on the client.
That means JavaScript. And that means that your JavaScript function should
fire just as the Session times out (20 minutes). You would use the
JavaScript setTimeOut() function to accomplish this.
