Sorry for my ignorance. I'm not much good at understanding what scripts are 
doing.

No problems here on FC2, with KDE version: 3.2.2-14.FC2.2.legacy. I left 
Firefox open, having used Klippers actions to open the first URL, then opened 
another URL using Klippers actions popup, and the page just changed with no 
errors.
