Or did you find a workaround for this?( >'execute' doing its work in the 1 opened browser tab? ) Thank You! That doesn't happen here. For me, it refreshes the page if it's already open in the browser, and it does that without fail even if a different tab is open at the time. I'm not sure if it's a Geany setting or a Firefox setting that would need to be tweaked, but I suspect it's one of the Firefox settings, because although Geany knows which browser I use (in the "Tools" section of its settings), it doesn't instruct the browser in any way. I believe all it does is pass a known file-type to its associated tool and then takes its hands completely off of it. It's then up to Firefox to decide what to do with what was passed to it. I have no tab-managing or page-managing extensions in Firefox. Just an ad-blocker, a sidebar-notes extension, and an internet-search tool. And to tell you the truth, I don't see any setting inside of Firefox or Geany that would instruct Firefox to open a page in a new tab if it's already open. The closest thing I've got is a check-mark in the "Open links in tabs instead of new windows" option in Firefox in the "Tabs" section of its "General" settings, but that couldn't possibly be it. It might be a bug related to your add-ons or extensions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/927036 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/800744 Hopefully someone else will jump in with something you can try, because this is such a convenient solution that it would be a shame to not be able to use it. -- Little Girl There is no spoon. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
