Losing my tabs
Posted on July 10, 2003 @ 09:09 in General
One drawback of using Firebird with the Tabbrowser Extensions is that I've managed to loose all my open tabs a couple of times now. I love the fact that you can redirect all new windows to tabs, but still "Use multiple browsers ONLY when the users opens them." That way, you have the benefits of both tabbed browsing and of multiple browser windows where you can cluster one particular 'project.' However, if you have multiple browser windows open, each containing a set of tabs, Firebird will only remember the set of open tabs in the last window that you close. If you're not very careful, it's easy to close the window with all the important tabs first and then those open tabs are gone, kaput. With Opera I never had this problem, but then again, if you use Opera in Single Window Mode, then there is no option of opening a separate browser window with its own tabs: there is only a single browser window in which ALL tabs reside. So, I've set the Firebird Tabbrowser Extension to use the Single Window Mode too now, which to me is a loss of functionality, but at least it won't mean a loss of tabs anymore.

Since MT-Blacklist inexplicably stopped working I had no other recourse than close comments and trackbacks to stop the spam. I've been meaning to correct this for quite a while, but life got in the way... in a good way I should add.
