how to keep existing chrome windows on their desktops

Hello,

Is there a way to keep keep chrome (browser) windows on their respective desktops.

Here is my problem:

I'm working on multiple projects, and the browser is an important aspect of every project, research etc. I also use tabs. Each project is in it's own desktop.

When I click on a URL link in a desktop that does not have a chrome window already, it appears that _a chrome window from another desktop_ is pulled to the current desktop and the new URL is openend in a new tab.

Is it possible to:

1) have chrome open a new window if there isn't one already in the local desktop, and

2) if there already is an existing chrome window in the current desktop, open the URL as a new tab.

Thanks for any suggestions!

aa

:dex:,

for window activation from another desktop, please see the following option: http://dexpot.de/?id=quickstartguide#behaviorofwindows

Dexpot cannot tell other applications how to handle invocation (e.g. open as new window, open as tab), though.
