check if seesion has expired

I would like to know how to check if a session has expired and as such redirect the user to a page informing them of this. Can anyone help me with this?

You can use

if ( $_SESSION['name'] == NULL )
{
header ( "Location: http://newpage.com/newpage.html" );
}

Or maybe

if ( !session_is_registered('name') )
{
header ( "Location: http://newpage.com/newpage.html" );
}

Also you can use

Code:

if(!session_id()){
    header("Location:http://newpage.com/newpage.php");
}

checks to see if there is a valid session active

let me know if that works.. HTH
