How To Enable Tabbed Browsing In Safari

In Safari 5.x, the procedure for managing tabbed browsing has changed significantly. Please refer to the following updated article: How to Manage Tabbed Browsing in Safari 5 for OS X

Each tab has its own drop-down menu associated with it. If you are using a standard one-button mouse, hold down your Control key and click the tab itself. If you are using a two-button mouse, right click on the tab. This drop-down menu has the following options:

  • New Tab: This will open a new, blank tab.

  • Close Tab: This will close the tab which you selected. Please note that you can also close a tab by simply clicking the small "x" on the left hand side of the respective tab.

  • Close Other Tabs: This will close any other open tabs besides the one selected.

  • Reload Tab: This will refresh the page in the tab which you selected.

  • Reload All Tabs: This will refresh the page(s) in all open tabs.
