[Lab] Automatic OK dialog for a specific site - Browser Extension

[Alan Gardner]

"confirm" is a JS method which creates a yes/no dialog. You probably need
the $.get(remoteURL) call to update a session cookie. Your best bet is to
override callServer with the exact same code, but instead of confirm use
var extend_session=true
