Hello,

I´m developing a system using asp.net,
I have a page that I don´t want to expire because the user will fill it
"slowly"
Is there any way for doing that ?

tks

Hi Ed,

You don't want to extend the Session length, as this will cause your app to
consume more memory on the server. I would not use Session if this was the
case. You might try using ViewState instead.

to add to that, when you say "slowly" you are probably going to want a way
to save the progress at any point (which will refresh the session). Users
get pretty mad when they spend a long time filling out your form, only to
find something goes wrong when they try to submit it, and they either lose
their work, or don't get the form submitted correctly.
