Ross,
What OS/browser where you using at the time?
It appears that Internet Explorer is having some flakey issues with the auto-refreshing - it wouldn't auto-refresh for me earlier (hung at 10 secs for me when it failed twice for me), but it seems to be working perfectly for me now. I'm not sure what is causing this strange behavior, and since it seems to be very intermittent, I can't really test it.
If you weren't using IE, could you let us know more information?
Otherwise I'm going to blame Microsoft (and recommend FireFox) on this one for possibly not handling javascript consistantly/properly. Perhaps deleting the cache could help (but wasn't necessary for me - I closed and reopened IE and it works fine, maybe I rebooted also, but for different reasons).

I encountered a new problem while going through a Galaxy example for my class, using Galaxy2.2. When importing data from the UCSC Main Table Browser, the history column does the usual count-down of "refreshing in 10 sec, 9 sec, 8 sec, ...", but once it stops at "refreshing in 1 sec". Then it just shows the spinning wheel indefinitely. Clicking on "refreshing in 1 sec" completes the import, and now you get the data in the history.
