Will session automatically expire?

If we don't use the session_destroy(), will the session be automatically
destroy?
If not, then how should we code it so that it will automatically destroy?

Hi,

there ist an idle-time. If the user don't interact for that time, the
session will be killed.
You can set this value in the php.ini or with the set_ini() function
(see: session.gc_maxlifetime).
But there is no "deadline" - so if someone reloads a page every n
minutes the session will never expire (not good for security reasons).
