Jürgen:
The timeout is not a securuty issue, it's the way php sessions behave, as I explained here:
http://www.ztw3.com/forum/forum_entry.php?id=102046
http://www.captain.at/howto-php-sessions.php
..." I was interrupted and finished my posting hours later "... The time limit to submit the post due to php session behavior is about 40 min.
Anyone else?
