session_timeout and link_to_remote conflict

Hi,

I have a membership rails application and I used session_timeout plugin to allow accounts to automatically logout after a period of time (15 minutes)

In some screen I have a div container which is updated with link_to_remote function.

If the application is idle 15 minutes, and I'll try to press the link_to_remote, the login page it will be loaded in the div, not as parent page.

How can I resolve this ?

Thanks

I had a similar problem. I resolved it in the authentication code which renders the login page:

   if request.xhr?       # redirect to auth page    else       # render auth template    end
