the little tab appears to the right (with the + in center) but I click on it and nothing happens. I try also by going to File/New Tab and still nothing. A new tab opens when prompted while looking at stuff and I want to open information in a new tab...but does not open a blank one at all. when I try using Internet explorer it works.
