session time out in jquery+ajax

Step 1

timeout.js

(function($){

    var defaults = {
            inactivity: 1500000, //25 Minutes

               var m = Math.floor(sec / 60);
               var s = Math.floor(sec % 60);
              $('#modal_pop span').text(

                   s + ' second' + ((s > 1) ? 's' : ''));
           }, 1000);
   }
    var start_liveTimeout = function()
    {

      initialTimer = setTimer();
      $(modal).dialog({
        buttons: {"Stay Logged In":  function(){

          stay_logged_in();
        }},
        modal: true,
        title: 'Expert AdminSpace'
      });
     
    }
   
    var redirect = function()
    {
      if(opts.logout_url)
      {
        $.get(opts.logout_url);

    var stay_logged_in = function(el)

    var keep_session = function()
    {
      $.get(opts.alive_url);
      clearTimeout(sessionTimeout);
      sessionTimeout = setTimeout(keep_session, opts.sessionAlive);

    //###############################
    //Build & Return the instance of the item as a plugin

    return this.each(function() {
      obj = $(this);
      start_liveTimeout();
      if(opts.click_reset)
      {
        $(document).bind('click', start_liveTimeout);
      }
      if(opts.sessionAlive)
      {
        keep_session();
      }
    });

})(jQuery);

step 2:

in web.xml

<servlet>
  <servlet-name>KeepSessionAlive</servlet-name>
  <servlet-class>com.filogix.expert.view.uam.KeepSessionAlive</servlet-class>
  </servlet>



    <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>KeepSessionAlive</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/view/KeepSessionAlive</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
