    qxoz, thanks for the quick response!
    what are the differences between QTabWidget, MDI, or simple parent child dialogs? My goal is to make the browser display a new window when I press a button.

      Well
      "QTabWidget":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtwidgets/qtabwidget.html
      "MDI":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtwidgets/mainwindows-mdi.html
      "Dialog":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtwidgets/examples-dialogs.html

      How do you imagine your app, how it will look like?

        here it is thus far:
        my design philosophy is to be sleek yet functional. kinda a hybrid between chrome and firefox. I would like to possibly make a tab row underneath the search bar row.

                  @qxoz,
                  So I have read the documentation, but im not sure how to make it switch tabs. Do I have to make separate windows for each tab? I know im being vague, but I just don't really understand how to get started with the tabs.

                      Maybe this "link":http://www.codeprogress.com/cpp/libraries/qt/qtClasses.php?item=QTabwidget can be helpful.
