Default refreshing my browser

Does anyone know, can you set your firefox browser to refresh every Blank amount of minutes? firfox3.0.1

or is there a spot in UserCP that allows this to happen?

I seemed to recall my old netscape would reresh every 5 minutes, netscape was good

Frank, click the tools option at the top of the Mozilla page, then click add-ons. Select get add-ons. You can search for a term like refresh. You'll find one called ReloadEvery. It's supposed to reload pages every so many seconds or minutes. Hope this helps.

it may not be compatible with the current firefox, but it is a good program (what steve suggested)

but it will upgrade it sooner or later, so if it doesn't work for now, try it again in a couple of weeks.



try tapping F5 key if you don't like using da mouse. It should refresh it real quickly...(works for IE also)

Reviewers at Mozilla said it works fine with Firefox 3.0.1.

oy vey,

I broke my own golden rule, always search before I open my big mouth...

last I checked, it wasn't compatible but that was a few weeks ago when Firefox just updated. I guess they work faster than I give them credit for.

Thanks Steve, I needed that reminder...(but may I make an excuse that I was really really tired?? *sniff*sniff) LOLOL

Glad it worked for ya, Frank!!

Note to self, life is an EVOLVING process, nothing is CONSTANT...

thank you very much, Steve. I mean that in all honesty. I need to learn to search before I post when it comes to techs again, been shooting off from the hips too much lately...can't blame it all on being tired.
