Hi, I have made an uploader page but I have discovered that IE (and other browsers) time out after 5 mins or so.
This causes a problem as the files I upload take say 10 minutes and so the page times out and my files do not get uploaded....
I have tried adding a frame where I refresh just that part of the page once a minute but this does not keep the session alive either
I have also add a registry file to keep the browser session alive to X minutes but this does not work either, still times out after 5 mins. (I googled to discover the registry hack does not work for others too).

(Although my server has IE 6 and that url just mentions up to ver 5.)
I am at a loss, does anybody have any idea on how to keep the browser sessions alive?
I have read this is a problem for many people but I havent read a working solution, doesnt matter what the language used was, its always the browser at fault.
All I want is to let users upload .zip files just like fileplanet.com does...
Thanks, Kevin
