Close window on JSP Session TIME-OUT

ei Ranchers,
I need a urgent reply for the following issue.

On session time out, my page is directed to a login page (index.jsp). But instead I want the window to be closed

Why i need such a requirement is, I have a main page and various inks in that main page that pops up new child windows. Now, if the user is inactive in the child window and session timesout, I am getting the login page inside the child window, which should not happen..

Is there any control within the jsp like

onSessionTimeOut()
{
closewindow();
}

Thanks,
Rancher

Hi,
Please try the below its a Java script
function logout() //you function name
{
window.close();
}

Ya, window.close() closes the window.
But how will i know that the session has timed out?

I am mainly concerned on the condition to check whether session has expired.

thanks

I think it you can not close the child window when the session is time out
because session is relate to user, when the session is expire it come to direct login page.

But i dont want the login page. I want to close the window if the session is timed out(since user was inactive on the page).

Use the HttpSessionListener

try this link

But is it not possible to check without these 2 classes being implemented. Cos, i dont want to update my jar files consisting of all the necessary class files.
