PHP Page Session timeout?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Apr 22.2008

Hi!

Can someone please let me know how to do,

[b]Automated PHP Page session expiration after a certain idle time (which user doesn’t interact with web page) [/b]

This is actually to protect an application from unauthorized access after leaving browser open without logging out.

I guess I have to do this with SESSIONS; but could not find a solution.

Thanks and Best Regards

You could try adding these lines:

ini_set('session.cookie_lifetime', 0);

ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', 3600);

You should add them at the start of every page, or in the connection file since it will most probably included in all pages, and also appears before the session is started.

However, depending on your settings, this might not work.

Success!
