Is there any way I can make the Popup browser to open into Chrome instead of the Android Browser? Are there any alternate Popup browsers available in Playstore that enable me to open up the browser of my choice?

Use flux browser you can find it in the play store
Edit: what do you mean by pop up?
If you have more than 1 browser it will prompt you to choose the browser before you open a link, just press just once so it will not be default
A simple THANKS button would suffice

Thanks I'll give flux browser a go
S3 Has a mini browser that opens up as a pop up window. You can move it around while not opening the default browser. This usually happens when using Google search bar.
When you press the expand button it takes me to the default Android Browser. I am looking for an alternative that would let me open Chrome instead of the default browser when expanded

I don't think there are any other popup browsers. I did not find any.
Thanks for your reply
I can't believe no one has thought of a good customizable Popup browser

Hmm not really considered a short cut since you need to go into the menu and press refresh
Opening new windows via squeeze pinching the screen all the way - Now that's a shortcut
In the stock browser, I hit menu then more and select text. It lets me select text, then what? How do I copy? I go to the same spot in the menu as "select text" after selecting and there are no new options. Long pressing on selected text also gives me nothing.
sent straight from my brain....
You highlight the text and then hit the highlighted stuff and it gives you option.

once it is selected long press on the highlighted text for the options menu
Or just switch to dolphin browser HD it has better copy/text functions and tabbed browsing.
I couldn't get down with the Dolphin Browser myself. I just use stock. Couldn't really find one I was happy with.
Agreed on the browser... I use stock, but I do have Skyfire installed for sites that the stock browser hoses up.

I don't like skyfire much myself but any browser is better than stock. I love the tabs and gestures in dolphin. It's pretty much Firefox but it actually pwns the android Firefox browser lol.
Android Firefox was absolutely horrible.

There are two ways of doing it:
1.
- Open your stock browser or chrome or Firefox
- bookmark your favorite website.
- goto bookmarks, long-click on anyone and select add to home screen.
2. From your launcher.
- long click, select add shortcuts,
- choose bookmark and select your favorite one.
With method two, you must have previously bookmarks that page on your stock browser at least.
Click on the THANKS button if I've helped you

Why is it that when I'm on the Web my tabs don't close. If push the back button it exits out but tabs stay open. Is there a fix for that.

What I do is next to the address box at the top on the right side, is a little rectangle with a number in it. Click to open the Window manager it will show all the open sites just click on the ones you want to close then click on the rectangle to get back to the browser. You might also try to click on bookmarks the button in the upper right hand corner then history, then bottom left menu button to erase you browsing history. I checked through browser settings can't find anything that allows the browser to hold tabs.

But shouldn't they close and the browser should add you if you want to exit.

Yes I agree, when I search on Google and wander around several sites. Then I just click the back button, it backs me out of each web page and if I keep going it will take me back to Google then to my home page. It doesn't close the app, I have to do that with Active apps button. Is this how yours is running ?

Running the same. Just annoying that it doesn't close the tabs. Before it would close all tabs. Wish it was like that.
