David,

Very useful and well-written package!

Thanks John!

 

Speaking of expiration, I notice that gae-sessions doesn't
automatically
extend the cooke expiry when a page is accessed.

I'd like to have a session that expires after say 30 minutes of
inactivity.

What's the best way to achieve this?  Call regenerate_id() on every
page access?

If you want to a session to expire 30 minutes of it was last used, then yes you will need to call regenerate_id() on each page access - make sure to pass the new expiration time to the regenerate_id() method.

All the best,
