I have a cron script that destroys sessions that are over 30 minutes,
essentially running from library...
class SessionCleaner
def self.remove_stale_sessions
CGI::Session::ActiveRecordStore::Session
Session.destroy_all( [''updated_at < ?'',
30.minutes.ago] )
end
end
which works fine. Sessions are ActiveRecord if that matters.
I have on my layout for this one particular model/controller,
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="300">
which refreshes the screen every 5 minutes which means as long as they
leave this screen open, their session is updated and never destroyed.
So I added to the model, in_out.rb
:session :on, :except => %w(list)
and restarted the server but still, when this page is refreshed, so is
the user''s session.
Is it possible to have a page set so that if it is refreshed, the
session remains untouched?

But the receptionist also walks away from her desk and I would like this screen to refresh more frequently but not allow someone else to sit down with the receptionist''s authentication and access other areas. Future plans are to: - expire sessions more frequently - not require a login for the list view at all Craig --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Anyway, moving it from model in_out.rb to in_outs_controller.rb made no difference...a page refresh still updates the ActiveRecord session (Yes, I restarted the web server, logged out, deleted all sessions so I know this was a new, untainted session). ;-( Craig --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
