Auto close idle tabs

May 28, 2009 · by Espen André Øverdahl

Here's a really cool User JavaScript for those of you who have way too many tabs idling in Opera. It's made by willosof and you can adjust the closing timer by editing the script and changing the variable.

Download autoclose.js

That's great... but I leave tabs idle for days at a time so I don't forget to do something about them...eventually

Hope we can just click something to activate this, or suspend, so that us tab hoarders can keep em open as reminders etc.
