Can't open more than 9 pages in Safari

Safari on the iPad doesn't allow more than 9 pages (windows/tabs) to be opened simultaneously. When the 10th window is opened Safari automatically closes an already open window. I hope version 4.0 fixes this.

 MBP, Mac OS X (10.6.3), iPad (OS 3.2)

Don't hold your breath. This has been the way mobile Safari has worked from the first iPhone.

You should tell Apple here rather than just hope:

There is a stacked pages Icon that is third from the left on the top menu bar. Click it and select a new window icon, which is an empty dashed line box.

For some reason, on my iPad (version 1) the multiple pages icon no longer responds to its having been "pressed". Is there some way to remedy this situation that I am not aware of?

Thanks,

Please start a new discussion instead of adding your post to one that ended more than a year ago.
