Andrys, the problem occurs right after you check out at OverDrive, when you click on the next button, which is "Get for Kindle." At that point, it tries to open a new window and displays the error message: "Web Browser could not open this link because opening multiple windows is not supported."
This is the entire process:
Sign into your account at OverDrive
Click on a book
Add to Cart
Click on "Proceed to checkout"
Click on "Confirm Check Out"
Click on "Get for Kindle" (this is where it gets hung up)
When you order an OverDrive book on a computer, after you click on "Get for Kindle" you are forwarded to Amazon's webpage that says "Get Your Public Library Loan." Then you choose whether to have the book delivered to your computer or your Kindle (just like when you buy a book there). The final step at Amazon is to press the "Get Library Book" button.
This library book borrowing process
must have been tested on a Kindle—you would think! I have only mediocre HTML skills and even I know how to code a page to open in the same browser window.
Perhaps they had to do it for site security reasons. I don't know.
