Open New Tab Option in Custom Context Menu

Petty_Crim · 10-01-2008, 06:37 AM

I am trying to make a custom context menu so that when a user right clicks it replaces the original right click menu. I can get that bit working but I don't want to do away completly with all the browser features. In particular I want to include a "open in new tab" option in my new menu so that users may open links in a new tab, however I cannot seem to find any information on google on how to do this.

I need it to be cross browser compatible at least IE/FF friendly. Does anyone know how to do this or have a link to a tutorial?

Also is it possible to completly replicate the original menu, but use a custom context menu to change the look/design of it with css?

Which one are you using?

Could you not implement it so it acts the same was as you do:

Code:
