• C# uses braces ({ and }) instead of indentation to organize code into blocks. If a block is a single line, the braces can be omitted. For example,

On a recent project, I ran into an issue with Python Selenium webdriver. There's no easy way to open a new tab, grab whatever you need and return to original window opener.

Here's a couple people who ran into the same complication:

• http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17547473/how-to-open-a-new-tab-using-selenium-webdriver
• http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6421988/webdriver-open-new-tab/9122450#9122450
• https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/selenium-users/kah4iEPRopc
• ... and many many more.

So, after many minutes (read about an hour) of searching, I decided to do find a quick solution to this problem.
