I checked some of the other threads but didn't see this one. If I ask someone to click on the "something" tab, what word will I use for "tab"?

Well, for the tabs in my brower it says "pestaña" - NikkiLR, Dec 10, 2013
Thank you all for your suggestions. I think pestaña is my best bet. Love the forum. Look forward to working with you all in the future! - JMCSprite, Dec 11, 2013

Otras posibilidades incluyen: pestaña, ficha, etiqueta
Creo que se usa "tabulador" para referirse a la tecla

Google Chrome says "Abrir nueva pestaña" for "Open a new tab" so I'd second pestaña

Welcome to the form. I would say, "tabulador." Wait for a better suggestion though. Check this link.

What about lengueta? - JMCSprite, Dec 10, 2013
"La lengúeta" would be used to refer to something like the tongue or tab of a shoe. - pescador1, Dec 10, 2013

rac1, close enough.
tabulador = tabulator
tab = table(s)
