Thanks Marc.
Didn't realize tabs were just representation.  Our current Webtest 
installation is somewhat behind the latest (doesn't have closeWindow).
I've asked our systems people to upgrade to the latest, then I'll re-try 
using closeWindow.
Thanks for all your help and prompt reply.
Adrian

Hi Adrian,

tabs are only a representation detail (that you can configure) within
Firefox that don't matter at all for web applications (they aren't aware
of it). Therefore WebTest doesn't consider the tabs but just "windows"
that you can close with <closeWindow/>.

Marc.

&gt; what do you understand with &quot;tabbed panels&quot;. Pages displayed
as tab by<br>
