This is super buggy... the settings are either sometimes half-disabled or sometimes spontaneously revert to the previous setting value.

not good

Realy it is what I want. But if we can set milisecond it become better. And also the when refresh start close is not working every time. For example if you set second to 0 it can not stopable until close page. But DON'T FIX THIS VIA block 0 second :) Because of every time I use 0 second :)
