On some occasions the admin module is logging me off when I want to save my changes.

I thought the maxtime setting was causing this. I changed this to 86400 (24 hours) but still no change.

your php.ini may still be set to it's defualt of 1800: the phpWCMS max-timeout cannot override the php.ini. ' Extra Security' is the reason for the phpWCMS timeout, if your php.ini has a longer timeout than your nerves can withstand you may force a time out sooner with this setting.

I checked with phpInfo.
There is a parameter 'max Execution Time' that is set to 30 minutes.
I can't change this. My ISP wont allow this

Still I think the normal execution is:

• starting a script
  generating output (html) deactivating script execution
  respond to user input by starting a script in the same session

So then scripts never run long. Or is there an endless loop in the system

As far as i can tell the script is considered inactive until a button is used: if the time between buttons being used is more than your max timeout then you are redirected to login.php without warning or data stored.
best idea is to keep sving every now and then

OK, Thanks
