Added pressing \"Enter\" key while cursor is in any of the two input text fields, saves the settings and closes the menu. Enabled extension in Private Browsing mode. Enabled compatibility for Firefox for Android. Removed an unnecessary setInterval, replaced with addEventListener. Some other small layout changes added.

1.0.4 -- Layout edits. Default settings for new users/incognito users reset to none. Add Enable All/Disable All buttons. Add a button to reset iframe's offset top.

1.0.3 -- Note: A change in this version makes it necessary to re-enable \"Allow in incognito\". Add http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=14R5zCYR to include_globs. Turn on some settings by default for Incognito use and/or a first-time user (Height/Width, CAPTCHA focus, CAPTCHA audio/visual alert). Small layout changes (select field focus fix). Plays an audio alert in same tab 50 seconds after last audio alert (new), in a new tab 30 seconds after last audio alert (old), replay audio alert in same tab after 60 seconds (new). Remove \"key\" from manifest requires user to click check box for \"Allow in Incognito\".

(ID: ) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 03/20/2018 Now updated to work with new mTurk release; however, included tools are a very basic, and are a common component in other extensions that not only offer more, but boost productivity as well (such as mTurk Suite - MTS).
