Works for a while and then just stops and the timer resets back to no auto-reload. Will remove this and look for a more reliable alternative.

必要最小限の動作に留まっているのでシンプルで分かりやすい。ただし、ページの更新操作を手動でするとキャンセルされるのは、ちょっと不便。それと、そういったページ操作をしていないのに、いつの間にかキャンセルされてリロードしなくなっていることもよく起こる。また、設定を変更しようとすると、プルダウンに「タブへの接続中にエラーが発生しました。タブをリロードして、このポップアップをもう一度開いてください。」というエラーが出ていることも、そう珍しくない。あと、設定ボタンの表示が「申し込む」というのが日本語として奇妙すぎて、使うたびに失笑しているｗ
