You also have many plugins for every browser (although I didn't came across one for MSIE

) which enables you to auto-refresh any page you want.

None for MSIE, but IE based browsers do have that option.

F.e. i use Avant and i got the following options (no need for a plugin, all is there standard):
Auto refresh the current: disabled, 10 sec, 30 sec, 1 min, 2 min, 5 min, 10 min, 15 min and the same options for All windows :chrongue:

I like Avant, it's fast, highly configurable and very complete in its options...

I meant that it does it uber intelligently, so if you are looking at the page, it doesnt refresh it, but if it is in the background and you are looking at another tab, it does refresh it.

I don't think so. :-/

Anyway, I wouldn't like that... browsers shouldn't do things like that unless you tell them to.

Yeah, there is/was one for IE, because Johnny_Mac talked about it a long time ago. :-/
