What is your issue ?
I am a Selenium newbie. Issue 2: Want to find an already open tab. I would 
supply URL. (Alternatively I would supply a Caption.) Then fill a form on that 
page.

It's not possible to automate an already opened browser if it's your goal.
If not, can you provide an example and the step you are stuck at?

Suppose the page is automated with Selenium. Open page, navigate, log in userid 
password, get to form page to fill, get results. Sometime later or sooner (or a 
batch of 100) need to fill the form with other data and get the result. So I 
don't want to everytime start again and login, etc. If the form is sitting 
there I want to use it. So I would need to determine whether the form page is 
available, and process it. 
Please advise
Regards
Brian
