Yes. Place your htmlviewer control on a tabpanel & use the NewWindow method to add panels & viewers as required. If you use WebKit as the viewer you can use + Click to trigger the newwindow method.

I created an app on the MAS called ‘Look It Up’ ([http://www.holymackerelsoftware.com/Utilities/LookItUp/](http://www.holymackerelsoftware.com/Utilities/LookItUp/)) which has multiple browsers in multiple tabs. It was designed so you can perform a search once and have it search in multiple sites as once. It sorely needs an upgrade, but it works!

To do it I created an HTMLViewer on a container then embedded that container on the new tab. My problem was how to kill the container when the tab was closed. I now know!
