timeout issues for a website

[ayush patel]

Hi,

I developed a website using ASP. my client does not want the application to timeout even after 8-9 hours(if they are working). i know that connection timeout is set for timing out when the system is idle. but for the time when user is working on the website how should i set timeout values.

i changed session timeout and asp script timeout from IIS on the server but it does not seem to work. i have also changed values in web.config file. these timeout values are not overwritten any where in any asp page. does anyone has any idea what else should i do to increase this timeout value?

Don't froget that there are also timeouts on the browser as well, and quite possibly on any gateway between the server and client. Setting the timeout on the server only ensures that the script will continue to run, not that it will produce a page.
