Javascript in head tag of master page

Question

I have placed the following script in the head tag of my asp.net master page.

What this script is suppose to do re-direct to the Timeout.aspx page after specific inactive time has elapsed.
If the user scrolls / clicks on the page, then the time is reset. On running the page I get an error:

Jscript engine runtime error: object expected.

Code:

var wintimeout;

function SetWinTimeout() {
    wintimeout = window.setTimeout("window.location.href='../Timeout.aspx';",
                                   60000); //after 5 mins i.e. 5 * 60 * 1000  
}

$('body').click(function () {
    window.clearTimeout(wintimeout);
    //when user clicks remove timeout and reset it  
    SetWinTimeout();
});

window.onload = SetWinTimeout;

Answer 1

You need to change the call of setTimeOut

Change

function SetWinTimeout() {
    wintimeout = window.setTimeout("window.location.href='../Timeout.aspx';",
                                   60000); //after 5 mins i.e. 5 * 60 * 1000  
}

To

function SetWinTimeout() {
    wintimeout = window.setTimeout(function(){
                       window.location.href='../Timeout.aspx';
                 }, 60000);
}

If this is not an error because JQuery is not loaded, try the following to run the whole script after the page (and JQuery for that matter) has been loaded:

$(function() 
{

    $('body').click(function () {
        window.clearTimeout(wintimeout);
        //when user clicks remove timeout and reset it  
        SetWinTimeout();
    });

    SetWinTimeout();
});
