Very nice post.
But will it redirect a user to “Home/Login” in this case:
Dialog with lets say five sites. 5th site calls “Session.Abandon();”
Situation: user “walks” through dialog, ends in 5th site, Abandon() is called, but user navigates with the browser(!) back button back to the fourth site. Is the user in this szenario redirected to “Home/Login”?
I dont thik so, because ” if ( ctx.Session.IsNewSession )” isnt true, because we didnt create a new session. Or?

Thx for the article. I have included the SessionExpireFilterAttribute and registered this actionfilter in Global.asax. But the problem is it is working only for [Httppost] methods, but not working for Get methods in mvc3.

How can I achieve this inside a Base Controller so all of my controller actions gets this behavior and I don’t have to repeat?

It depends on the project and whether or now you would like to have a “rich” user interface. That is my view anyways. I’m a web developer so I like to keep things as close to HTML and javascript as possible.

Thanks for the article, I hope you dont mind but I borrowed your code. I also extended it a bit to handle return urls and made it testable with Rhino Mock.
