[Chameleon] KeepSessionAlive widget disfunctional? - solved

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi Paul,

I would call the attribute interval or refreshinterval .... the documentation should contain that this value should be smaller than session.gc_maxlifetime in php.ini.

Best regards,
Bart

Opps.  That was probably me ...

Bill,

please check all the sample templates for this problem.

I agree that the attribute name is misleading.  Do you have a suggestion?
