[Solved]Uzbl-browser + tabbing = how?

Any tutorial to get Uzbl-browser working with tabbing navigation?

The uzbl_tabbed.py in official site doesn't work. And i suppose tabbed is the real solution but i just can't make it work.

Why doesnt uzbl_tabbed.py work? It works fine for me. Alternatively you can use a tabbed layout if you use a tiling window manager. I know xmonad has this option.

I'm using the latest (2010/01/05) version and the tabbed browser works fine for me (although I'm not using it).
Probably stupid question, but did you call

uzbl-tabbed

instead of

uzbl-browser

to start it?

If you have, you may need to add some extra stuff (ie keybinds) to your config:
When I tried it out I had:

set show_tablist =1
set switch_to_new_tabs =1
set bind_new_tab = gn
set bind_tab_from_url = go
set bind_next_tab = gt
set bind_prev_tab = gT

Edit: "There's a 'post preview' button, you know?" - "Oh, really?"

I did it, but it makes no sense because pacman just installed uzbl-core and uzbl-browser.

About uzbl_tabbed.py, i can't find that file, the links in official wiki (http://www.uzbl.org/wiki/uzbl_tabbed) are broken.

I'm using dwm, and tabbed already installed but i don't know where to start.

Ah, you installed from pacman. Yeah, that didn't work for me either. I installed Dieter.be's git version from the AUR http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25972 and that works fine. Maybe you should try that!?

Thanks man, Going to trust more in git packages.

or do others a favor and report a bug for the uzbl package in arch ...

A bit late response, but since google still returns this thread as a first result, it hasn't been fixed for a year and since it's marked as solved:

uzbl-tabbed in repos clashes with unclutter.
You have to run "unclutter -grab" to "fix" this.
