Browser windows

[ewosch]

Hi,
is there a possibility to get the number or the names
of open Browser windows ?
I want to try to avoid double-opening of a page. My idea was to
give the page a name and to check whether this name exists.

thanks for help

Only if your script opens them.

Don't use secondary windows and thats not a problem.

Thats a possibility, depending on how you are opening the pages.

Usually if your opened window has a name and you open a new window with
the same name, the allready opened window might be used.

You may set the focus to your newly opened window so it will be shown on
top of your current window, especially if it's allready open.

Hi, answering to both:
I open the new window with ctrl-n - then I have two windows with the
same name.
I fear there is no chance to avoid this.
