Does anyone have a recommendation on how to implement sessioning on Zope 2? Basically to set browser timeouts for the user so logout after say 20 mins of inactivity. The difficulty we've had previously is detecting what exactly 'inactivity' is... Cheers Rich
Take a look at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/plone.session It's a PAS plugin that uses signed cookies rather than server side sessions. These cookies are timestamped and have an expiration timeout after which they are considered invalid. When you use a short timeout then there is some javascript that will update the cookie periodically while the user is active on the page. Laurence
