I am wondering if there is a way to browse a webpage with a split pane view (similar to how excel has the ability to split panes to see different parts of the same spreadsheet).

Google searching brings up tons of extensions for having multiple pages side by side in the same tab, but I want to see multiple sections of the same web page at the same time (i.e. viewing the top portion of the page at the same time as much further down).

Any thoughts or ideas for me?

(I am also open to switching browsers if a different browser has this feature. I tagged with Chrome because it is my current preferred browser right now. I am using Win7)

P.S. I've looked here and here but the recommendations here don't appear to do what I want and/or they contain dead links.

As you are open to using a different browser...
This is a standard feature of the Vivaldi browser.

You can tile tabs side-by-side or in a grid within the browser window. There is nothing to stop you using the same web site in two such tabs.

From their help pages...

  • Very cool. I'll check it out. I've never heard of this browser before, and I definitively am intrigued. :) Commented Sep 27, 2017 at 12:22
  • I tested this browser out and it does what you demonstrate. I was hoping to ultimately find a browser or extension that would show the same page instance with a split pane type view, but in the absence of anything like that being available, this definitely is a step in the right direction. Thank you for the recommendation. Commented Sep 28, 2017 at 12:22
  • Accepted your answer since it was the most helpful one so far. Thanks again for the recommendation. Commented Sep 29, 2017 at 13:20
  • This is great. I wish there was to just split page into two like visual studio or other editors.
