I am looking for a good way to let the user know that the ASP session will
timeout shortly. Has anyone seen any good code that I can place in the
template so that if the user is on any page, they will be alerted?

The best thing I've seen is to instantiate a timer in javascript with a
value slightly less than the timeout configured for the web site. Something
like:
setTimeout("alert('session is about to end')", 20000);
That fires after 20,000 msec., with the assumption your session probably
lasts 30 seconds.
I suppose you'd want to put that in the <BODY
onload="setTimeout('alert('session is about to end')', 20000);">
(although this needs some attention given to all the apostrophes and quotes
it contains, so that it executes properly)
