The user can accidentally do practically anything.

That describes a problem with how you want things to work, not with how things are - unless I'm missing something? yes, it describes how i could be. If we're opening a new window, at least it'll always be in the foreground... Yes, it opens in foreground. But the user can send the window (accidentally) to background...

I thought about this a minute: for a dual head this would be a nice feature (edit the page on one head, see the preview on the other one). But for 'normal' users this can be confusing. When the preview window is in the background, the user click on 'preview' and the preview reloads in the background...

You can always just close the preview window; this way you can compare things. Anyone else think this just isn't a big deal?

Hi, the preview of a page opens in a new window. When I click on preview again an other preview window opens. It would be nice if the preview would appear in the preview window that is already open. by, Martin
