Well, the default value is "0" which means exactly what you have written. But the browser window isn't closed, so the session can't expire! So IMHO this can't be the parameter which is responsible for the problem.

Yes, I can also copy my changes to clipboard before saving, but I am not asking because I have got this problem, but my users.

Kind regards,
Frank
