Read the explanation of the Session object at
http://www.devguru.com/technologies/asp/9173.asp
A session is considered idle if they do not retrieve a fresh page from the server w/i the session timeout period set
- so if you set it to say 60 min on the form that is how much time they will have to finish/submit the form
If you to increase it on the form page set it back to a more reasonable time on the form confirmation page
| Thanks
| If the form remains open in the browser will the cookie still be active so
| they can fill out the form at there own leasure?
| The form is to enter projects online and is rather long
