Problems when paginating search results

Have you tried $this->session->keep_flashdata('item');
"If you find that you need to preserve a flashdata variable through an additional request, you can do so using the keep_flashdata() function."

Opening a new tab will cause flashdata to be lost as this is now another server request. I am not sure why the same thing is happening with Fancy Box unless you are not using the inline feature, as ajax, iframe, etc would cause another server request.
