This GreaseMonkey script should work to keep you logged in at almost any sportsbook.

What makes this script different is that it doesn't do a simple autorefresh, but rather makes a HEAD request every 5 minutes of the last frame (or the entire page if no frames exist) on the page. By only submitting a HEAD request, the amount of data that's actually transmitted is extremely small (on the order of 300-400 bytes). The 5 minute timer is reset every time any page is requested from the site.

This script should effectively keep you logged-in to any HTTP-based site (sportsbook or otherwise, it most likely won't work properly with HTTPS sites) that times you out after a period of inactivity. It should do this without interfering in any way with your browsing

To install, you'll need the the FireFox add-in GreaseMonkey. If you already have GreaseMonkey you can install the Stay Logged-In Any Book script by clicking here. If you installed the previous the Bookmaker/CRIS-only version you should uninstall that.

If you don't already have GreaseMonkey visit the FireFox GreaseMonkey page, install the add-in by clicking the "Install Now" button, then restart Firefox and install from the above link.

(If you want to uninstall, go to Tools/Manage User Scripts, select "Stay Logged-In", and click Uninstall.)

To add new sportsbooks, you'll want to right click on the GreaseMonkey icon at the bottom right of your FireFox browser window (the icon that looks kind of similar to Donkey Kong), select "Manage User Scripts ..." and select "Stay Logged-In To Any Book" from teh left panel. Under "Included Pages" window click "Add" and then enter the url of the book twice as follows:

http://bookname.com/*
http://*.bookname.com/*

It's important to enter the book twice so that the script gets will get called for both http://www.bookname.com/ AND for http://bookname.com/.

It's a bit messy but it does seem to the trick.

If anyone has any suggestions on how to improve this, please post them here.

The script should generally work pretty well but of course I can offer no guarantees.

I appreciate you posting this tool and all Ganchrow, and I did read in one of your other previous posts that you are currently using this at these sites.

I guess my question to you or anyone else using this script is. What sites might frown upon the use of this script in regards to the confiscation factor? I wouldn't think that the professional type books like Wsex, Matchbook, Jazz, ABCIslands or Pinnacle would really care, but some books like Royal, SBG, Sportsbook.com, and WagerWeb might. After all those books seem to love to steal players funds for their own personal amusement.

Possibly a stupid question, but I certainly don't share Ganch's tech savvy...

Has anyone tried this with ABCIslands' software? Their f-ing timeouts are maddening & it would be great to have a fix for that.

I've tried it with ThePig and it works fine. ABCIslands uses the same software as the Pig.

Give it a try. The ABCIsland domain is already listed in the script includes.

Actually I had just said that that script was tested to work on those sites (the CRIS-family sites). This new script is much more generic and should be usable on the majority of sites without any tinkering.

Well firstly, a player shouldn't be playing at any book that "love to steal players funds for their own personal amusement" anyway.

Secondly, it's very lightweight in what it does. It places far less load on a server than an auto-refresh script. It's making a very small request, doing so infrequently, and in an unobtrusive manner. It isn't refreshing a page ... it's just asking a server, "If I were to refresh this page could you tell me a little bit about the type of information I'd get back?"

It's not doing anything out of the ordinary either, it looks like normal traffic (except it occurs at regular intervals when idle -- although I suppose could add in a random delay).

I agree 100% Ganchrow. I wouldn't play at those books personally,
however some of our posters would for obvious reasons.

My tech will test to see if this works correctly and effectively, lets not blow this guy until we know it works pretty well.

Random delay is a great idea if you can do it

As for Jazz software, it seems it does not work, i was logged out of ABC

[jjgold]

I tried them at a few books and still get logged out

Which books did you try it at coach?

[DrunkenLullaby]

I guess coach is his own "tech".

[jjgold]

SIA it did not work, reloading page is much more effective
