Tabbed Browsing for PC Users

1.31.2010

Tabbed browsing allows users to open multiple webpages simultaneously, to move between those pages easily without exiting any other, and to view that list of open webpages at (approximately) eye level and separate from the open applications windows listed at the bottom of the page.  In the following image, for instance, Tracy has six tabs open:










She knows which page is topmost because that tab's right-hand  X  is red.

To close this tab completely, she'd click on that  X .  

To move between tabs and, therefore, webpages, she would simply click on the center of that tab.   (She'd be mad if she clicked the  X   accidentally instead of switching tabs because then she'd need to reopen that page from scratch.)

To open a new tab, she has three options:
  1. She can select "New Tab" from the "File" menu,
  2. She can hit the "Ctrl" and "T" keys simultaneously, and
  3. She can right click anywhere on the tab bar.
