<button title="" data-original-title="" rel="tooltip" data-title="Boost this device" data-placement="right" data-trigger="hover" class="btn btn-xs btn-link boost"></button>

would prefer a userscript to do it but don't know how to do it running firefox on ubuntu with greasemonkey

ok so i made a mistake it's every 3 hours and I have no coding experience. That is the reason I asked for a script.

Why? Why not have a timer on the page to do it?

Hi,

First of all, it is not recommended to perform button click from script however, we can call the embedded function with certain time duration.

HTML

<html>
	<head>
 	<script>
	function buttonClick()
		{
			document.getElementById("output").innerHTML += "Clicked!  ";
			setTimeout(function(){
				buttonClick()
			}, 1000);
		}
		
     </script>
 </head>
	<body>
	<button onclick="buttonClick()">Click Me </button>
	
	</body>
</html>

for your scenario the time duration should be 7200000.

Thanks
