Selection Listener on TabFolder executing five times on each click? [message #901576]

I want to add a listener that does something when you change tabs with the selection listener.

I am doing something where if you edit something on a tab and don't save, if you attempt to change tabs it will stay on the original tab (I did this by getting the current Tab and resetting it to that one after you change) and a pop up comes up telling you to save or cancel your changes.

I realized however that this popup was coming up FIVE times in a row when you changed tabs, and with a println statement I see that for some reason it goes into the selection listener five times? Why is this and how can I fix it?
