Browse URL Always Opens New Tab

[tenholde]

I use the Browse URL task frequently via multiple Home Screen shortcuts.

For every time the task is run, it opens in a new tab.

Pretty soon, hundreds of tabs and low memory issues.

Can someone suggest any browsers that would allow me to:

> Limit the number of tabs, and then start deleting oldest tab before opening new one

> Or, doesn't support tabs at all, or allow user to turn them off

> Provide some way (usable via tasker) to close all tabs?

Or, any other way to solve my problem?

I guess you could try adding to all your browse url tasks a variable adder (bleh. lack of better word), which goes off when you tap it. This way, when you tap a browse url shortcut, there's a variable that counts how many open tabs you have (assuming you don't close them, either). Then set up another task that when the variable reaches 6 or something, it activates and closes the oldest tab. Probably with a...screen tap? The good thing about browser tabs - they're the same size, which means that it'll work (the screen tap) until the tab size changes.
