Firefox plugin to reset browser

Permalink 07/17/10 05:32, by Esa Viitala, Categories: Software

The old hack to reset browser based on xscreensaver screenblanking and a piece of perl to watch it was too ugly to use on the new installation. So here is simple firefox plugin which does basically the same thing without wasting resources. It simply loads a tab with your homepage and closes all other tabs after a period of inactivity. It also puts browser back to fullscreen mode (optional).

It has two configurable options in addon preferences. You can configure the inactivity timeout (in ms), and if the plugin should try to force fullscreen when reloading your homepage.

Use it in addition to "Full Fullscreen" addon which removes all window decorations etc from firefox and you have a perfect kiosk mode.

Get the plugin from addons.mozilla.org
