Reload button

It sure would be nice if I could designate a tab reload time for individual tabs and have the ability to turn off auto tab reloading for certain tabs.
Sometime auto reloading really messes up my reading a tab when it reloads while I am in the middle of the page and it reloads and I am at the top of the page and I have to scroll down the the point I was at before the reload.

Thanks Steve. You seem to know a lot about Pale Moon. Do you know how to stop it sometimes when I have several tabs open and I click on one and suddenly that tab opens in a new browser window? That is annoying.

You need to check your auto-reload settings/time intervals and your tab preferences. Do you use any of the third party 'Tab Utilities'?

Yes, I use Tab Mix Plus. On that site I have it set to reload every 100 min and it still does it when it wants to.

Okay, in the 'Tab Mix Plus' Options, Go to -> Menu -> Tab Context Menu -> Checkmark - Reload Tab Every - Then right click on the appropriate tab - In the tab context menu make sure there is no checkmark for enabled. (On the website in question this works for me).

BTW as you're using 'Tab MIx Plus' you shouldn't need one of the other third party Tab Reload add-ons.

I already had mine set up that way. See screen shot enclosed.

I'm afraid your screenshot doesn't show me your tab context menu. Please follow exactly what I said in my previous post. And please uninstall your other Tab Reload addon because you may have a conflict there.

According to the page's source, this site auto-refreshes on it's own every 7 minutes, regardless of your settings. Here's the code:

Code: Select all

 <!-- refresh site every x minets -->
    <script type='text/javascript'>var refreshSite; refreshSiteInterval();function refreshSiteInterval() {refreshSite=setInterval(function(){document.location=document.location;},420000);};function stopRefreshSite() {clearInterval(refreshSite);}</script>
  
I don't see any means to disable this on the web site, you may want to contact their site support group to see how\if this can be disabled.

Looks like you too are presented the mobile forum style on desktop.

I'll just have to remove it for now, it obviously doesn't work as-intended.
