How to stop auto refresh in Chrome
Hi everyone, it's been awhile since I've posted but I visit daily. There is a filter in Sidke's cfg called "No Drudge Refresh" which used to work but doesn't now. I use Chrome mostly and can't seem to find a way to stop auto refresh not only on Drudge but other sites as well. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

RE: How to stop auto refresh in Chrome
I don't see "No Drudge Refresh" in the last sidki cfg.
Standard mode 'intercepts' refresh and replaces it with a red "timer" button. I see this "timer" button at drudge.

Regardless, the current refresh code at drudge looks like

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var timer = setInterval("autoRefresh()", 1000 * 60 * 3);
function autoRefresh(){self.location.reload(true);}
//-->
</script>

and

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--    
// ads breaking timer, this restarts timer
if (typeof timer == 'undefined')  {
  var timer = setInterval("autoRefresh()", 1000 * 60 * 3);
  function autoRefresh(){self.location.reload(true);}
}
//-->
</script>

So something like

Code:
[Patterns]
Name = ""No Drudge Refresh""
Active = TRUE
URL = "$TYPE(htm)"
Bounds = "<script*</script>"
Limit = 512
Match = "*autoRefresh\(\)*"
Replace = "<!-- Proxo removed autorefresh -->"

should do something.

HTH
