I realize that I can handle "SessionEnd " from global.asax ... but it appears
to me that this gets called without the context of a current web request. So
given the following scenario:
User logs in and session starts
User is inactive longer than the session timeout setting
Some thread, not associated with a request, detects the timeout and raises
Session_End()
The User comes back to the site presenting a timed-out session id
ASP.NET restarts the session (obviously without any data from the previous
session)
My question is, when the user returns with a timed-out session id, is there
a way for me to empirically determine that their session has timed-out? A
property that I am perhaps missing somewhere? I realize I can check their
session contents collection for a peice of data that would otherwise be
there, however this seems somewhat indirect to me and, in my particular
case, potentially not "complete" enough to make the determination.
Any thoughts are welcome,
TIA//

I believe the only way of knowing is by the Session_End event. You can
catch it there but I don't know what good that would do. The only other
suggestion is to start a timer when there session starts and do
something if there is no activity before it ends. There are examples of
this in this forum.
when user hits the site with an expired session cookie, a new session is
created. in the new session event, look for the old session cookie in the
request( currently ASP.NET_Session Id)

I considered that ... but it appeared that ASP.NET just renewed the old
session id ... are you sure about this?

If all client browser instances haven't been closed
the Session ID will be recycled.
If all client browser instances have been closed,
a new Session ID will be issued.

When a request comes into a page on my ASP.net site and a session is
not found, I want to detect whether the request is an initial request
or if the user did have a session going that has now been lost and

Rather than tagging a 'session in progress' flag on the end of every

request.
One idea I had was that when...

Whats happening at the moment is that objects that exisit in the Session are

I have a page where the user can upload a video file. As you can guess, this

Hi
I'm using the Session_End event in the global.asax to detect if a
users sessions has ended. Is there any way to tell if the session end

I'm trying to show the user a popup if their session has expired due
to a timeout.
Whats the best way to do this?
