Solution 1

Session timeout is website based. You define that in Web.Config file.

You cannot have website session timeout as 20 min utes and a control in the website as 30 minutes timeout!

I would suggest you to modify the session timeout of the website as 30 min, via Web.Config:

XML

<configuration>
   <system.web>
      <sessionState mode="InProc" cookieless="true" timeout="30"/>
      </sessionState>
   </system.web>
</configuration>

thanks for giving ur reply. forget about my website session timeout period. now i want to set session time out period for a particular control like textbox. how can i change that. this is the question asked TCS.

No, don't forget what I said.

TCS asked and was expecting the same answer what I gave you. They must be testing you if you know it or not.

He gave you that answer already - session timeout applies to the entire web site, NOT individual controls.

Proposed as answer.
