Automatically reload page in Chrome without plugin – Super User

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/07/14

Below is a cool solution to refresh a page using a bookmarklet is to embed it into an iframe, then automatically reload it every interval.

It for instance works for the [Wayback/Archive.is] Woonveilig and often in Fritz!Box environments.

[Wayback] Jon described the below method as a solution for his own question, 6 years after asking it in [Wayback/Archive.is] Automatically reload page in Chrome without plugin – Super User.

So I made this a bookmark:


javascript:document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].innerHTML = "<iframe id=\"testFrame\" src=\""+window.location.toString()+"\" style=\"position: absolute; top:0; left:0; right:0; bottom:0; width:100%; height:100%;\"><\/iframe>";reloadTimer = setInterval(function(){ document.getElementById("testFrame").src=document.getElementById("testFrame").src },5*60*1000)

(it is in a gist as the WordPress editors keep killing the embedded html code, despite it being escaped within <code> tags.
