Description

In DrRacket, every time I click the scribble-html button it opens a new tab in my browser --- even if I already have a tab open for the document.

It would be awesome if clicking the scribble-html button could refresh the existing page instead of opening a new one.

Research direction

Start by locating the implementation of the scribble-html button in DrRacket and the browser-launching path it uses. Reproduce the repeated-tab behavior, then verify that clicking the button refreshes the existing document page instead of opening another tab.
