I have 8 orders (shows as 16 line items) showing in counterwallet. There should only one. First 7 were from Firefox which showed no confirmation when order was placed, 8th was from Chrome, which showed a popup window for confirmation when the order was placed. Will the first order fill and the rest just go away? Using pop-ups for confirmation is a REALLY bad idea - should go to a confirmation page instead. Is there a way to cancel the extra orders?
I'm also showing a lower BTC balance, 1.8583 instead of the 2.02 BTC I started with - has it been eaten away by all these orders? Does this mean all of 8 orders will fail because the BTC balance is no longer at 2? When I placed the order, it said the total cost was 2.02 BTC, now I'm down to 1.8583 BTC with no order filled.

Considering you were ordering my asset I'll answer this for you:
Each transaction takes a BTC fee. That is 0.02, hence the lower balance.
They will expire and you will get that back in a couple more blocks, which is a pain for both of us but you can re-do it.
Best,

I've sent another .15 BTC to bring the BTC balance up, guess I should have read this first. I may need to have some extra dust anyway. We'll see how it goes. Thanks for the reply. The confirmation pop-up has to go. I service computers and see how regular people use them. This will never fly for the average user in its current state.
I've created a bug report for this as a GitHub issue. Thanks for bringing this to our attention (the unreliability of the confirmation pop-up).
I pushed 1 of the 8 orders through by adding BTC to my balance and paying it off. The other 7 have been promoted to 14 open orders expiring in about 11 days with a cancel option. Should I cancel to get the fee refunded or is it better to let them expire?
You should probably cancel your open orders, yes. The fees can't be refunded, however.
So I noticed. I cancelled them, but I'm short 0.1451838 BTC, original deposit 2.02 BTC + .15 BTC extra - 2.02 filled order - 0.0048162 final BTC balance after 7 orders cancelled. Is there someone who can issue a refund of the missing BTC. That's about $64 USD at current prices. Where do the fees go?
