jquery after 1minute send $POST to server

I know how to do a setTimeout(function(){}),xseconds} But what I don't know is how do I make the xseconds a minute.

Basiclly what I want to do is make sure the users session gets updated on our server and the only way I know to do that is via PHP as it needs to be saved to the MYSQL, so I was going to $ajax POST send a request to the server to update the session end time in the session table.

So quick simple question is what is 1minute in jquery seconds.

setTimeout is used as follows.

var t=setTimeout(function(){},milliseconds);

1000 milliseconds = 1 second. So 60 seconds in milliseconds...

60 * 1000 = 60000

it's a milisecond not second. so it you want to have 1 minute means 1x60x1000 = 60000ms

setTimeout(function(){}), 60000}
