Can we see some code?

I usually, create a timeout function with jquery and make ajax calls to a php funciton to update the database with any information I need saved.

So, you can create a timer; then when the timer has reached its max value, send ajax call to controller, set status, and send status to model to update database.

Javascript/Ajax is a good way to handle timeouts but don't rely completely on it. you will need some PHP to check the timer as well, sessions and even setting the time in a table is good practice. If JS is disabled then they are free to do whatever they want. You can set a session lifetime as well, session.gc_maxlifetime in your ini file. Default is 24 mins I think.
