No need to be sorry Justin. Further thought. When the bid button is hit one of 2 things
happens. Either the window navigates to a log in window, which is secure, or
goes to a window which is used to enter the bid which I do not think is secure.
There is also another root where the bid can be entered on an items page. That also
causes ebay to generate an input error page if it's a tabbed window.
The main point here is that a tab window in focus does not behave in the same manner
as an ordinary window. Also that closing down the background tabs causes
Konq to revert to correct operation. Me thinks this must be a bug.
The tabs are a wonderfull way of cruising ebay. I usually scan from the shortest time
to the end of an items auction. These finish up going left to right across the window. Very
handy but I wonder if it would be nicer if the tabs themselves shrunk as the number built
up. They aren't big enough to show much of the title in anycase - that could be taken
care of with a hover.
Regards
John
