I am using VB 2008 and I have been in the process of my own web browser and I need to know how to right click on a link and click on new window for it to pop up in new window or new tab. Does any one know how to do this?

[Cheatmasterbw]

Try this:

Code: Select all

Private Sub WebBrowser1_Navigating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserNavigatingEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.Navigating
    Dim VarName as Uri
    e.Cancel = True
    VarName = e.Url
    'Do what you need to do with VarName to make it open in a new tab/window
End Sub

I did not test this code, so i hope it helps!

It does in some cases, but it really doesn't solve my problem, when I click on a link in my browser the open in a new tab option in disabled and open to a new windows is enabled, but it opens it in IE and not the browser I am making, is there a way to change that?

Make yours from scratch I'm half way in mine and that is built from scratch!

[MrBrockWalker]

Try this.

Code: Select all

Dim htmlElement1 As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.ActiveElement
Dim s1 As String = htmlElement1.GetAttribute("href")
WebBrowser1.Navigate(s1)

You will need to edit it to work with tabs

You wall also have to add e.Cancel = true to your code i think :P
