Hi,
I want to know the best way to carry user id all over the application untill the application end ,i.e user log out.
As of now I am using this way--
1)user logged in
2)his user id is stored in session
3)every page of that app is accessing the session
4)on logout,clear the session
Main problem is session timeout which I think can not be prevented and the session timeout event not fully in my hand.It is also dependent on server.Because each time on each page I set the expire time of session to 24 hrs,but it destroys in 1 minute in some server and 10 minutes in another server.
so pleaSE tell me how the practical web application uses the user credential storing method.
