You tapped on the tabs button on the upper right to open the tab list, then tapped on a X to close a tab, and nothing happened?

Did exactly that.. as I mentioned, that got rid of the image of hte page, taking me to an overview of all the pages open, but when I then tap the upper right corner to show all the open pages again, it's still there, and still comes up and still reads '23' (I now have 23 pages open.. ugh)

I haven't seen that before. I don't know why that would happen. Hopefully someone more knowledge about the Android product will chime in.
