dantay9 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 I am using an embedded IE in my Gecko Web Browser. My problem is that some links always open up in a new window. Later I plan to open these links in a new tab, but I don't have tab support yet. An example would be an email link. Most email links open in a new tab, but since there isn't tabs in my program, it opens IE in a new window. Is there a way to force every link to open in my embedded IE control?

DaleHohm Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 (edited) Previous post points to NewWindow2 event. The way that AutoIt processes events, it will not get notified of it until it has already occurred and you have no opportunity to control the outcome. Such events must be processed in browser context if you want to control them. There is no easy way to do what you are wanting to do... there are ways to handle specific cases, but there will always be another scenario that breaks your model if you are allowing navigation to arbitrary pages.

It means that what you tried did not produce the results you expected. It begs the questions 1) what did you try?, 2) what did you expect? and 3) what happened instead?

dantay9 Posted November 23, 2009 Author Share Posted November 23, 2009 Thanks for the advice. It wasn't that big of a deal. Just wondering if it was a realistic feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
