All you have to do is make a new bookmark and put this as the url:
javascript: timeout=prompt("Set timeout [s]"); current=location.href; if(timeout>0) setTimeout('reload()',1000*timeout); else location.replace(current); function reload(){ setTimeout('reload()',1000*timeout); fr4me='<frameset cols=\'*\'>\n<frame src=\''+current+'\'/>'; fr4me+='</frameset>'; with(document){write(fr4me);void(close())}; }
Make the tab you want to auto-refresh your focus. (Just click on it) and then click your new bookmark. Enter how often you want to refresh the page in Seconds, then sit back and enjoy. (I usually go 60 seconds) You can go about your business leaving webDip up on a part of or on a secondary screen, and you'll always know when you have a new message or orders are needed.
To stop the auto refresh, just click the bookmark again and enter 0. I like to keep a second tab open for actually playing the game so I don't have to stop/restart the loading.
Don't be daft and enter 1 second or something ludicrous, you'll just bog the server and make kestas angry. But it beats the hell out of refreshing manually.
Eventually, if allowed, I'd like to expand on this so that the user's computer looks for the mail icon and X icon, notifying the user when either occurs via sound, popup, or taskbar notification.
