Session Timeout

[Pam]

Does anyone have a good example for coding a session timeout.
I have a page, which I only want to remain open for about 10 min. and after
the 10 min. expires it needs to be redirected to anther page.
I am a novice to ASP development, and would appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance,
Pam

Within your Global.asa file

Sub Session_Onstart
Session.Timeout = 10
End Sub

Then, within your asp file, you will have to check this value before performing
an operation to determine if the time has expired.

I tried this instead, and it didn't seem to work:

<%
if response.expires = 10 then
response.redirect("newpage.asp")
end if
%>
