"Lab" timeout different than "Office" timeout?

[Tim Mc Laughlin]

Yes, and in fact the form will probably end up with some javascript to determine the
"default" state of the checkbox based on IP address.  However, they want the checkbox so
that users in non-WWU IP ranges can make that choice, as well.

Thanks!
Tim

Is there some sort of requirement for having this "checkbox" that couldn't be determined
automatically?  i.e. by IP address, or whatever?

Surely the Lab and the Office have different IP ranges, no?
