Try this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-
us/windows/win32/api/winbase/nf-winbase-setthreadexecutionstate

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i
SetThreadExecutionState(ES_CONTINUOUS or ES_SYSTEM_REQUIRED or
ES_DISPLAY_REQUIRED);

I use this procedure, which I call periodically with a TTimer:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i procedure
AvoidIdle;// Creates a null mouse move // uses JwaWinUser var  Input:
TInput;begin  Input.mi.dx := 0; // remove a warning  FillChar(Input,
SizeOf(Input), 0);  Input.mi.mouseData := 0;  Input.mi.dx := 0; 
Input.mi.dy := 0;  Input.type_ := INPUT_MOUSE;  Input.mi.dwFlags :=
MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE;  SendInput(1, @Input, SizeOf(Input));end;
