Navigator V4.0 - Open a Page in a New Window


 

Sometimes you perform a search on the Internet and find tons of great sites. Sometimes you find a great links page and you want to visit all of the sites. So, you click on one of the sites and browse it for a while. When you are done, it's back to the original page, or it's back to the search engine so you can re-enter your query.

Stop this craziness! You can open up two browser windows, one with your search results/links page, and one with the actual page you want to view!

Instead of merely clicking on a link to visit a page, right-click the link and choose "Open In New Window." Now, when you are done visiting that page, close the window. Your search results or your links page will STILL BE THERE so you can continue down the list of links.

This should save you a ton of time. Just don't open too many browser windows at once - depending on your computer speed or the amount of ram you have, opening 5 or more windows may cause problems.
