Hope someone can help with this.I log onto a web based booking sheet for golf 3 times a week.No button (booking time)can be clicked until the countdown timer hits zero.The timer does not appear on the web page until 10 minutes before booking time and counts down in whole minutes until at 5 minutes goes to minutes and seconds.I want to be able to place cursor over the required booking time and have the mouse click at exactly zero as there are others competing for the time slot at the same time.I did use a fast mouse clicker that worked but the web site seems to have made that impossible now >:(
We used to have permanent bookings - same time, same people booked in until a whinger went to the human rights commission about it.So now we have a situation where the fastest mouse clicker get the time slot they want and if you miss it you can end up playing hours later or not at all which tends to create a lot of angst.
I appreciate any help or information given to me as I have been going nuts trying to learn Jitbit and Auto hot key but at age 64 the brain is too mushy ;D 
THANK YOU

I think PTFB Pro (made in Scotland, the home of golf...) can do what you want.  I used it for other things in the past, haven't tried your particular requirement, but see their (permalink) blog post Wait until button is enabled: PTFB Pro v5.4.3.0

It's payware, if that's an issue.  Occasionally it turns up on PTFB Pro on Bits du Jour.
