Hello Holly,

The browser-based client will be a normal website from the perspective of your 
browser, so you'll be able to do any sort of window/tab management supported by 
the browser.  So, yes, you'll be able to do what you're asking about.

Subject: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] separating tabs in staff client

Yesterday I had the desire to view 2 or 3 tabbed pages in the staff client at 
one time. I tried to pull the tabs apart, as I often do in Chrome or Firefox, 
so they were in their own windows - thus viewable at the same time. But sadly 
they wouldn't budge.

Will the new browser staff client be able to function this way, with tabs 
acting more like individual web pages? Or will they be stuck within one 
"window" as they are now?

I appreciate being able to shuffle the order of tabs currently, but the added 
flexibility to create separate windows would be awesome.

Since I have no knowledge of the development requirements for this, I'm just 
throwing the idea out there. It may be extremely difficult, or impossible, or 
just scary. Thanks in advance for any feedback!

-Holly
