While checking for new Google Chrome plugins I stumbled upon a plugin called Dual View which made it possible to display two websites in a split tab. This could actually be very handy for numerous reasons like writing articles with a reference site open on the screen which would eliminate the need to switch between tabs all the time.
Could also be interesting for product comparisons, shopping or watching videos in one half while doing something else in the other half of the screen.
A quick check on the Mozilla Firefox website did not bring up the desired Firefox extension that would copy that behavior. The extensions that I found where either outdated or crashing my Firefox. That’s when I decided to ask you if you knew of an extension that would mimic the behavior of the Dual View plugin.
All I need is a way to display two websites in one Firefox windows next to each other instead of in their separate tabs. I could open two instances of Firefox and run them next to each other but I would prefer an extension that would enable the functionality so that only one instance of Firefox needs to be running.
So let me know if you are using or remember a Firefox extension that does that. Opera users could also weight in and let me know if Opera supports such a feature as well.

Why don’t you just open a 2nd window?

Split browser works very well
Split Browser is what I got installed at the moment
You could use the Spilt Browser as most mention or All-In-One Sidebar’s MultiPanel(the blue X icon). That’s all I can think about at the moment.
“Split Panel” may be what you are looking for.
JoJo yes I’m one of those screen maximizers ;)
The Split Browser extension does what I wanted, thanks guys.
