session expires

[karthi84]

i have used session in my web page. i have set the time out property to 20 in the web.config file. my problem is that my session gets expired even at the time of working. my web.config file settings is given below

[size=2][color=#0000ff]<[/color][/size][size=2][color=#800000]sessionState[/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff00ff] [/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff0000]mode[/color][/size][size=2][color=#0000ff]="InProc"[/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff00ff] [/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff0000]stateConnectionString[/color][/size][size=2][color=#0000ff]="tcpip=127.0.0.1:42424"[/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff00ff] [/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff0000]sqlConnectionString[/color][/size][size=2][color=#0000ff]="data source=127.0.0.1;Trusted_Connection=yes"[/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff00ff] [/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff0000]cookieless[/color][/size][size=2][color=#0000ff]="false"[/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff00ff] [/color][/size][size=2][color=#ff0000]timeout[/color][/size][size=2][color=#0000ff]="20"/>
 
[/color][/size]

even i tried it increasing to a value of 80. but nothing helped me.
can u tell how can i solve this problem.

what is the maximum value that i can give for this session time out. how to make the session not to get expired at the time of usage and it should expire only when the page remains ideal for that duration.

thanks,

The timeout value is in minutes, so whether you set it to 20 or 80 you still have a problem...

Are you by any chance redirecting or transferring the user during the time the session variable is in use?
