In an asp.net app, you realise the code runs on the server - right?

I can't think of any way to do that with javascript.
So I reckon you'd need to look at silverlight or activex.
I like silverlight..

What "data" are you talking about?

You'll have to use Ajax and make a call to a function from client side
javascript to get to a method on the codebhind file.

<http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/CallCodeBehindByJS.aspx>

You set the timer and call the function. The function called will be
going back to the codebehind file to call the Save() method.

I don't know if you can set the timer in millseconds for 5 minutes, let
me know.
