Some time ago I had need for a suite of Java dialog boxes that would close after a time out, since the kiosk type client sessions were subject to being abandoned, and I didn’t want leftover dialog boxes hanging around for the next user. Admittedly, the most rock-solid way to do this is just make pop-up windows that contain timers to close themselves. However, I’ve used the attached Java dialog boxes with good success for quite a while now. As-is, these require a boolean client tag “Dialog\_Box\_Open”.
