Hello, I'm new to this forum, not sure if this is a correct place to ask this particular question, but here it is:

Is it possible to bypass new tab opening limit on one particular website? Generally, this website allows 5 browsing tabs to search for different freights in different locations (logistics website "timocom"), but I would like to have like 10 open which would make the job much easier. Attached an image how it looks (the "+" button to open new tab becomes grey after 5 tabs are open). Thank you!

Attached Image

Perhaps the site can limit the number of requests from a particular browser/session/IP, but I don't think it's possible to limit the number of tabs a user can open in his browser.

Maybe you can set limits in your own browser, though: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/t...biabenojlniemoh

But I think this is just one web page. Short of hacking the javascript you cannot change what the website chooses to show on a page, but they can't stop you opening a new browser tab, or if there is some terribly clever crap, opening a number of "private" tabs, which do not talk to each other.

It's not the browser tabs I'm talking about, it's "tab" inside specific website, as you can see in the picture that I've attached to the initial post.

Yes, that is what I guessed. You can't really do anything to change the format of the page sent by a website. If you want to look at more than five tabs, can't you open two copies of the webpage in two browser tabs? It would be easier to help given a link to the actual page...

I would've given the actual page if it didn't require special permission to use it. The 2 separate browser tabs is a solution, but not the best one, since website has to be refreshed every 30 mins and then you have to add all the information in the tabs again.

Hmm. Sounds like a not very helpful website...
