Why would you want to do such a thing?
This is contrary to all web standards.
If you REALLY feel the need to have it open in a new window, then set
the target.
<a href="whatever. doc" target="_blank" >doc</a>
Not that that follows web standards, either.

A bit silly thing to do, I hope never to visit such page!
IE6 tested:
<a href="http://www.cnn.com/"
onclick="alert( 'Use other mouse button please for: '+
this.href);retu rn false;"
oncontextmenu=" location.href=t his.href;return false;">
Click me right here</a>

Why would you want to do such a thing? This is contrary to all web
standards.
More, it is contrary to usability standards for Graphical User
Interfaces (GUIs). The "right", i.e. the secondary (if not
configured left-handed), mouse button, is (if present) usually
reserved for the context-sensitive menu in GUIs. For example
Opera is an exception, because it allows one (the secondary by
default) mouse button as dragger button for mouse gestures.
If you REALLY feel the need to have it open in a new window, then set
the target. <a href="whatever. doc" target="_blank" >doc</a>

target="_blank" is valid HTML 4.01 Transitional and valid XHTML 1.0
Transitional. I fail to see a violation of standards here, if I am
understanding you correctly. It is not recommended, though, since
it "breaks" the Back functionality in windowed UAs.

In a page I have when the user left-clicks the page a Input box for a form gets the focus. But if the user right-clicks the page the Input box is not getting the focus. I'd like the Input box to get the focus no matter where on the page the user clicks be it right-click or left-click. Right now there is no context menu when the user right-clicks. Do you think that's the problem? Any ideas how to get this right-click left-click Input box...

I need to determine whether the user used the right or left mouse
button to click an element on a form. AFAIK, there is no way to
determine this from the Click (or DoubleClick) event. I currently have
my form set up to have a MouseButtons instance that gets updated by the
MouseDown event, then the Click event checks the instance to see if it
was right or left. This works fine, but seems a very roundabout and
clumsy way to do something...

Hi,
I have included a small listing. The test program opens a panel and
show a bitmap.
What I want is to when the mouse is over the bitmap panel, I want to
trap the left mouse click.
The purpose is to get the position of the mouse pointer on the bitmap.
However, for some reason, the left (I also tried right) mouse clicks
are not intercepted.
I new to Python and wxWindows so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everybody,
I've got a TreeView and when ever I right-click on it, the ContextMenuStrip

show the options for the node that was left-clicked before. How can I make it
work like explorer does that it doesn't need to be left-clicked and then

Hello. My 80+ year old father has recently decided to get his first

often the middle (wheel) buttons. While he is very slowly getting better

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
