browser tab

Open page slot

A browser tab is one of multiple pages open simultaneously within a single web browser window, each accessible via a labeled strip along the top.

Tabs allow users to switch between websites without opening separate windows: I have too many browser tabs open right now.

Heavy tab users may have dozens running at once, which strains computer memory.
