Javascript - Inactive user log out

Question

I am looking for a really simple piece of javascript code that I can add to an html page that senses when a user has been inactive for 30 minutes, pops up a message for 1 minute and logs the user out of a web application if the user doesn't respond to keep the applcation open.

Thanks

1) what have you tried? 2) please define what "inactive" means to you (e.g. mouse movement, key pressed...). — Fabrizio Calderan, Sep 20 '12 at 08:55

The answer below is perfect! And should accept it. Say, you have a server side script that logs out the users. You just bind a call to that script to `idle.idleTimer`.E.g. `$.idleTimer(10000); $(document).bind("idle.idleTimer", function() {window.location = "logout.php";});` — Michele, Mar 13 '14 at 08:04

You can try with idleTime

Link : http://paulirish.com/2009/jquery-idletimer-plugin/

Sample :

$.idleTimer(100);
$(document).bind("idle.idleTimer", function()
{
    var reload = confirm("If you refresh your page ?");

    if (reload)
         location.reload(true);
    else
         window.location = "You log Out";

});
