Some web pages do not have static text, but update automatically, even if you visit them. For example, pages containing live reports on sports events or election results. It can be frustrating if the text is updated faster than you can read a particular section – especially if the information is important to your business. Most browsers allow you to easily disable the automatic function.
Disables automatic refresh in Mozilla Firefox.
Firefox users can use the built-in functionality to disable automatic reloading of web pages in the web browser. The options are not available in the main user interface or on the preferences page, but it is still possible to manipulate the functionality in the browser.

You can now prevent PC problems by using this tool, such as protecting you against file loss and malware. Additionally, it is a great way to optimize your computer for maximum performance. The program fixes common errors that might occur on Windows systems with ease - no need for hours of troubleshooting when you have the perfect solution at your fingertips:
- Step 1 : Download PC Repair & Optimizer Tool (Windows 10, 8, 7, XP, Vista – Microsoft Gold Certified).

- Step 3 : Click “Repair All” to fix all issues.
- Type config into the URL using: config and click Enter.
- Enter the preference name accessibility.blockautorefresh in the search bar.
- Right-click on the name of the accessibility.blockautorefresh preference and select the Switch option from the drop-down menu.
- Change the value from false to true to disable automatic web page update.
Previous versions of the Firefox web browser had an option in the options under Advanced > General > Accessibility (“Notify me when websites try to redirect or reload the page”, but this option is no longer available in the latest versions of the web browser).
Firefox users can also set the browser.meta_refresh_when_inactive.disabled parameter to true, which prevents automatic updates if the tab is not active.
CONCLUSION
Although there may be good reasons to reload the site, in most cases it is just a way to artificially increase the number of page views – to reduce the cost of your bandwidth and CPU cycles.
The above steps change your browser configuration and may cause the user to restart or restart the system. The parameter accessibility.blockautofresh is set to true.
Once the above process is successfully completed, Firefox disables automatic reloading and the manual update button is now visible. Users can also use the F5 key to update the web page.
If the user wishes to enable automatic updating of web pages in the near future, he or she can simply go to the commands above and disable the desired command. The accessibility.blockautofresh parameter will then be set to False.
