I am trying to understand how session tieouts work. i am writing an MVC app (wait, dont run!). I am not posting the MVC area because you can wait a long time to get an answer in there, and timeouts don't working MVC anyway.
I am just trying to find out how they work. I have found some info from searching but the main question I have is, does the user have to be logged in, for a session timeout to work? For example, if the page is a public facing form that anyone can get to on the internet, can session detect when they start filling out the form, and timeout after a certain amount of time?
Thank you.
