Answer 1

Any postback / request to the server will extend your session window.

Answer 2

You can have a javascript timer running on the page when it loads. When it gets close to the session time out you fire a modal popup with a button to extend the session.

Using a javascript library like JQuery or JQuery UI would make the modal popup real easy to show.

The extender button can be a fake postback that automatically extend the session.
