login control remember me doesn't work

Dabbler

I have a login page which requires all users to login everytime they visit,
the remember me feature isn't working. We all have cookies and js enabled.

Any suggestions on how to diagnose this?
My login aspx:

<asp:Login ID="Login1" runat="server" BackColor="#FFF FCC"
BorderColor="#5 400A8" BorderPadding=" 4" BorderStyle="So lid" BorderWidth="1p x"
Font-Names="Verdana, Arial" Font-Size="12px" ForeColor="#333 333"
MembershipProvi der="myMembersh ipProvider" PasswordRecover yText="Can't
remember your password?" PasswordRecover yUrl="PwdRecove ry.aspx"

Font-Bold="True" Font-Size="14px" ForeColor="Whit e" />

<TextBoxStyle Font-Size="14px" />
<LoginButtonSty le Font-Names="Verdana" Font-Size="12px" ForeColor="#540 0A8" />

My web config:

<authenticati on mode="Forms" >

IIRC the timeout was changed thus rendering the 'remember
me' feature useless, so you need to set a timeout in your
web config to get it working again.

somthing like

<authenticati on mode="Forms">
<forms timeout="43200"/>
</authentication>
