Auto-clicker
Example 1 - Find the element
The following steps show how to select an element on the web page to automatically click for refreshing. In this example, we're going to automatically click the button labeled, "refresh".
Expand the Advanced options.
Checkmark the option to Refresh by clicking the link or button.
Click the Find button (icon with cursor) to select a target element on the page to click.
Click Start to begin refreshing.
This is a powerful feature for automatic web page refreshing. By default, Auto Refresh Page refreshes the web page in the same manner as clicking the standard Refresh button in the browser (or hitting F5 on the keyboard). By enabling this option, Auto Refresh Page will automatically click a button, link, or an element on the web page to perform the refresh. This is the perfect feature for web pages that already have a refresh link that you typically click to refresh content. For example, you can tell Auto Refresh Page to click the "Inbox" link on your email web page to have it refresh the content without refreshing the whole window. Or, you could tell it to refresh a stock ticker symbol, without refreshing the entire window. The possibilities are wide open!
Since this is an advanced feature, meant primarily for technical users (knowledge of HTML or jquery is a plus), let's look at some examples that show how to use it.

Auto-click after a page reload
If you want to auto-click the element on the page after a standard page reload, you can checkmark the option Click after page refresh. When you begin refreshing, the page will first reload using a standard web browser refresh and then automatically click the button or link that you've selected.
Adding a Delay
For instances where you need to wait a few seconds after a standard page reload before auto-clicking the button or link, you can enter a number for seconds in the Delay input box. For example, if you enter the value 3, Auto Refresh Page will first reload the web page with a standard refresh, wait 3 seconds after loading the page, and finally automatically click the selected button or link.
