...Opera was the first to do this. Mozilla's tabbed interface is far easier, though, as it demotes the controls for the child windows to a less confusing location (rather than immediately below the parent window, the close X is next to the row of tabs, and there's no capability for sizing child windows separately, or for running at any size other than the size of the parent window; for a browser, this is no loss at all, but it would be for other applications).

Well, I vote for the Opera way of doing it. I close windows using Ctrl-F4 (actually, I have one of the buttons of my 5-button mouse programmed for this keystroke), so the location is irrelevant.


Also, multiple sizes are often important, such as sites that open up pop-ups that you actually want to see (voting results on polls in a forum, among many other uses). For the Windows version of the tabbed interface, I suggested to winsupport that Opera was a program worth emulating.
