Please could you help me with posting links and switching between web pages on my tablet?

Hi, I have a rather ancient tablet.

Sometimes on here, I want to cut and paste a website link. So I have the Mumsnet tab open at the top of the screen and then another tab (for example Flylady website) open from which I want to "cut"a link and post on a Mumsnet housekeeping thread.

Then I want to go back and forth pasting some more links from different pages on the same (eg Flylady) website on to my Mumsnet post.

My tablet used to do this perfectly well. When I try it now however, the Mumsnet page I need to go back to to "paste" on, keeps "refreshing automatically" ifyswim so that I lose what I have already posted on Mumsnet. It returns to the same thread, but I've lost my post. (Hope that makes sense.)

Am I doing something wrong? The other website isn't relevant btw, it happens with all of them - just giving Flylady as rl example!

Thanks for any advice/suggestions!

Btw, I don't have this issue with my ordinary desk top computer. I can switch between different tabs with ease on that, cutting and pasting as I want!
