I am trying to navigate to a specific tab of a browser(ie,ff,chrome) from a c# windows application. In details, if I click on a button I want to be redirected to a tab with specific url, which is already open in browser. Lets say there are 3 tabs open in a browser: facebook,gmail and yahoo. Now I click on the button in windows application with the gmail url. Then I should be redirected to the gmail tab and not opening any new tab.
Thanks in advance for any help.

That's not an easy one. Have a look at Microsoft UI Automation and maybe that could lead you to an answer, but as i told you i think that's not easy and probably it will be slightly different depending on the browser. Sorry i can't help you more
