I am using Websphere as my HTTP/Application server with my JSP,JAVA based website.

I have configured the session timeout in Websphere(30 mins).

Now while all works fine under normal conditions, i face a serious problem under one situation...

Illustration: Suppose i have logged in and then keep the webpage open and subsequently the session times out after 30 mins...But now if i click any links on this page then a new window(which is href'ed) opens and goes in an infinite loop...

I need to find a solution such that after session time out,on clicking any link the user be directed to the login page.

please help...

thanks.

If your serevr can handle php I would do it like this.

Instead of href-ing to a new window link to a generic php page with a parameter indicating which link was clicked, like so:

<a href=page.php?parameter="linkname">

In the php page begin with a simple test:

if (session timed out){
header (location:login_page)
}

then test for each link like so:

if (parameter==link1){
header (location:page for link1)
}
elsif (parameter==link2){
header (location:page for link 2)
}
...


I'm not sure about the exact syntax I've used, but the logic can definitely be followed in php.

hey buddy thanks for the logic.

but i worked out another soultion...just in case you might be interested.

i made a new jsp page and out the session timeout check in this page...then i included this jsp in my other jsp's.

thank you once again..

bye.
