 Re: Does the forum index page update automatic ?
Mine has this too. I'm using a stock FF 9.0.1 without any reload add-on.

Re: Does the forum index page update automatic ?
My stock 9.01 does not have this. It is a manual reload. It is from the standard Mepis repos. I have not seen any stock FF have an automatic timed reload. _________________ Forum Rules Guide - How to Ask for Help Link to Wiki Rich Acer Laptop 5750G: Intel i5, 4 GIG mem, nVidia GT540M/Intel integrated graphics Kubuntu 13.04, KDE 4.10.2 M12 Alpha 2 in VirtualBox |

Re: Does the forum index page update automatic ? I know you're an Engineer rickb, but I did not say it was an automatic Reload. Just that it was a right-click away. Those of us who do not use a keyboard use right-click menus all the time. I'd never thought of a need for automatically reloading a page before this subject came up. I still don't see much usefulness for me for that feature.

Re: Does the forum index page update automatic ?
For me it is useful as I have the laptop sitting next to me while I am watching television. A glance without reaching for the keyboard or mouse, lets me know if an update has occurred. I am not suggesting everyone needs it. _________________ Forum Rules Guide - How to Ask for Help Link to Wiki Rich Acer Laptop 5750G: Intel i5, 4 GIG mem, nVidia GT540M/Intel integrated graphics Kubuntu 13.04, KDE 4.10.2 M12 Alpha 2 in VirtualBox |

Re: Does the forum index page update automatic ? Hadn't thought of that use rich. I usually set down at the computer desk and....compute. When finished I logout here and lock the Desktop. I have a brother-in-law that does as you do I think. At least his Apple Laptop is on a table beside his easy chair. He's big on a social media site (among others I'm sure).

Re: Does the forum index page update automatic ? In the Firefox about:config look at the 'accessibility.autoblockrefresh' setting. Mine is set to 'false'. My 'services.sync.prefs.sync.accessibility.autoblockfrefresh' setting is set to 'true'. My 'extensions.tabutils.menu.context_reloadEvery' setting is set to 'true'.
I'm not sure these settings are important, but they may be. _________________ SimplyMEPIS is SimplyTHEBEST Mepis 8.5; 2.6.32-1-mepis-pae (Internal 2.6.32-12); 4GB RAM 2.4GHz AMD Athlon 4600+ NVidia GeForce 6150 LE; 304.51 Display Driver |

Re: Does the forum index page update automatic ?
Same here. Are you sure that one of your other addons does not have that as a feature? For example Tab Mix Plus has an auto reload feature. _________________ Forum Rules Guide - How to Ask for Help Link to Wiki Rich Acer Laptop 5750G: Intel i5, 4 GIG mem, nVidia GT540M/Intel integrated graphics Kubuntu 13.04, KDE 4.10.2 M12 Alpha 2 in VirtualBox |

Re: Does the forum index page update automatic ?
I'm using FF 9.01 and Nightly from the Moz tarballs. I've never seen an automatic reload feature until yesterday when I installed ReloadEvery after Rich mentioned it. The only extensions I had previously were NoScript and Adblock Plus. _________________ Gigabyte 7ZXE, AMD Athlon XP 2200+, 160GB, 1.5GB, XP, M11, M8.5, Wheezy IBM ThinkPad T43, Intel Pentium M (1.73GHz), 60GB, 1GB, XP, Mepis 11 |

Re: Does the forum index page update automatic ?
You're right! When I disabled Tab Mix Plus, the menu item disappeared. _________________ SimplyMEPIS is SimplyTHEBEST Mepis 8.5; 2.6.32-1-mepis-pae (Internal 2.6.32-12); 4GB RAM 2.4GHz AMD Athlon 4600+ NVidia GeForce 6150 LE; 304.51 Display Driver |
