session time out....

[eluser]gulan[/eluser]
I read in codeigniter tutorial that session data will update every 5 minutes outomatically

Note: Session cookies are only updated every five minutes by default to reduce processor load. If you repeatedly reload a page you'll notice that the "last activity" time only updates if five minutes or more has passed since the last time the cookie was written. This time is configurable by changing the $config['time_to_update'] line in your system/config/config.php file.


but in my application its i can open some iframe windows, here session is not updating automatically it updates only if we close all iframe windows which is opened??


any way to update the session if user do any activity after a specified time??? that means if the user opens a window (in my application) 5 minutes after "last activity" then I want to update session?//
