Is there a way to install code for session timeout for inactive users ? Through either .php or .htaccess ?
I've come up with some code through Drupal (http://drupal.org/node/64413), but my head is spinning from all the code.

I've created a logout button, that seems to work fine, but I also want to timeout inactive users if they don't press the logout button and have had a period of inactivity, say 60 minutes. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks,
Jeff

Great link Rolly! Thank you. I probably have no business messing around with this kind of stuff being a non-programmer, but how else do I learn

I get it that I need to create a login.php and logout.php file in the protected directory. What I don't get, is in the "Homepage.php", is the php code as shown for this homepage.php inserted into the header of my .html page ? Because it says: <!-- From here all HTML Coding can be done -->.

If I insert php code into my html page, do I have to rename my page to pagename.php ?

I tried just creating three documents called login.php, logout.php, and homepage.php and put the script in just as shown (with the local directories). It worked once or twice, but then stopped working.

I know I had that problem with a script I was working on. I had to set the set the cookie back to 0 at logout.

Ok, where does this code go? In Logout.php, homepage.php, or login.php, or directly on my .html page?

It went at the top of my page that I redirected to when you clicked logout. It will probably have to be altered for your site but I was giving you an example.
