By default, browser sessions will not timeout in web client if you keep the browser tab open and it can continue to communicate with the server - no matter what the value of the container's/tomcat's session timeout is., This is because we have a data broadcast notifier that polls the server every 5 seconds (by default) to see if there is something to report. It can be configured via the "servoy.webclient.datanotify.frequency" option in the admin page. If you need to automatically log-out idle clients - that left their browser tab open, that can be done via Servoy plugin API (some third party plugins already exist that do this).
