I don't know of any functions built into PHP that have the
functionality you're looking for, but you should be able to simply
store an expiry date/time in your user's session, and if the current
time is past that, destroy the session and send them to a 'time
expired' screen.

Have a look at the session specific portion of the manual for some
helper functions. Also, if you're looking for further guidance, you
might want to re-post this question to the PHP-General list, since
your question isn't DB specific.
