#!/bin/bash
netscape -remote='openURL('$1', new-tab)' || netscape $1     - This worked 
for netscape

What is the "&" for at the end? Should this be added to my script?

Is it okay that I created a symlink?  /usr/local/netscape/netscape   
netscape

The script is saved in the new /bin (subdirectory of /home) that I created.  
Does "set the executable ... etc" mean the permissions?  If so, is 755 okay? 
 I'm the only user.

Also, following your previous post, in 
gnome-default-applications-properties, the following is inserted:
command: /home/user/bin/netscapetab.sh "%s"
