Session Variables

I have my session timeout at 20 minutes. Is there a way
to set session time per variable. For instance: I
create session("TEST") and I want it to expire in 2
minutes of no activity...Is that possible?

For Clarification:
If session time out in the web.config file is set to 20
minutes the session only times out if no activity occurs,
right!
Thanks

Nope. Just clear this variable when it is no more needed ? Use a timestamp ?

What is scenario ?

I think you can consider the use of Cache class
Page.Cache.Inse rt("KEY", value, null, DateTime.Now.Ad dMinutes(2),
TimeSpan.Zero);
will insert a value that will expire in 2 minutes without sliding
expiration.
See System.Web.Cach ing.Cache class for more information about this.

I hope this helps

right! Yes. If something happen the timeout is slided with another 20 minutes.

Hello, I have a session variable in a login page. Then I go to a form page where I uses the ProfileID and the UserID. Then I go to a result page where I would like to use the UserID as a filter, but I can't get the value is stored in it. How can I do that? Thanks a lot!

A particular page seems to be having issues with correctly setting Session variables. I am setting a couple of session variables on the Page_Unload event.

I've come from the old ASP camp where session variables were not used. When i started using ASP.NET in 2001, I started using them again because it was ok from what I'd read.

How can i convince him that they are ok in ASP.NET. OR

I have been using the default session state (InProc) and have found that I have been loosing my information after a period of time (normally 20 minutes). Is there anyway to find out how much more time I have on a session? If I do a refresh, does reset the session clock? Do you have have to go to another page to reset the session timeout or will a postback also do it? This is important as we have a few pages that a user

When a user opens a new IE browser window using File-New-Window the integrity of an application which relies on session state is COMPLETELY undermined. Anyone who overlooks the fact that File-New-Window creates an instance of IE in the same process with the same SessionID as the parent window is in big trouble. This fundamentally restricts the usefullness of using session state management. I probably missed it somewhere - can...

Some ASP.NET applications use Session Variables extensively to maintain state. These should be re-written to use viewstate, hidden fields, querystring, etc. instead. This is because if a user opens a new IE window with Ctrl-N or File-New-Window, BOTH WINDOWS SHARE THE SAME SESSION VARIABLES. This cannot be prevented.
