Since there is no extension engine yet for Google Chrome the functionality is provided by a bookmarklet which has its impacts on usability.</p><p>Users with large computer monitors on the other hand will love the feature which is also available for other browsers. Firefox users can install the Firefox <a
href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4287">Split Browser</a> extension which provides even more options and ways to split the browser.</p><p>The bookmarklet can be moved to the bookmarks so that it can be opened whenever it is needed. It will display a Javascript prompt upon execution for the first website and a second prompt after sending the first website that will contain the second url.</p><p><span
id="more-7943"></span>Both websites will then be displayed next to each other in the same Google Chrome window. Usability suffers quite a bit because of the Javascript prompts and no way of changing the contents other than following links or using forms that are visible on that site. It&#8217;s ideal on sites like Google Search but becomes a problem if the user wants to switch between sites that are not connected by links.</p><p><img

href="javascript:A14nH=location.href;L3f7=prompt('Choose%20File%201',A14nH);R1Gh7=prompt('Choose%20File%202',L3f7);if(L3f7&#038;&#038;R1Gh7){Fr4Q='<frameset%20cols=\'*,*\'>\n<frame%20src=\''+L3f7+'\'/>&#8216;;Fr4Q+=&#8217;<frame%20src=\''+R1Gh7+'\'/>\n&#8217;;Fr4Q+=&#8217;</frameset>&#8216;;with(document){write(Fr4Q);void(close())}}else{void(null)}&#8221;>link</a> to test the bookmarklet or bookmark it for later usage. The bookmarklet works interestingly enough in Firefox as well.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ghacks.net/2008/10/29/google-chrome-dual-view/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>8</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Ask The Readers: Best Tool To Split Firefox Tabs</title><link>http://www.ghacks.net/2008/10/17/ask-the-readers-best-tool-to-split-firefox-tabs/</link> <comments>http://www.ghacks.net/2008/10/17/ask-the-readers-best-tool-to-split-firefox-tabs/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 16 Oct 2008 23:18:34 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Martin Brinkmann</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Browsing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Firefox]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Google Chrome]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Opera]]></category> <category><![CDATA[ask the readers]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dual view]]></category> <category><![CDATA[firefox tabs]]></category> <category><![CDATA[google crhome]]></category> <category><![CDATA[split tabs]]></category> <guid

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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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&#8217;s when I decided to ask you if you knew of an extension that would mimic the behavior of the Dual View plugin.</p><p><span
id="more-7683"></span>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.</p><p>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.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ghacks.net/2008/10/17/ask-the-readers-best-tool-to-split-firefox-tabs/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>9</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
