Need to override session timeout due to page refresh...

[Guest]

I have a web site that uses Form Authentication with the Session timeout set
to 20 minutes, however one of the pages refreshes itself every 30 seconds. Is
there a way to override the session behaviour of resetting the timeout
everytime that page refreshes, so that if the user sits on that page without
activity for more than 20 minutes, the site still times out?

I am not looking to implement any page specific javascript solution, rather
override the original behaviour of the session manager.

Is there a possibility to intercept the calls via an HTTPModule and adjust
the timeout there?

Hi Russell,

Either you can do it in your web. config file of your application or You can
set it in application configuration tab in IIS Site Properties.
