See if the user right clicks on a link in webbrowser

Question

Im trying to check and see if the right clicks on a link in a webbrowser, if so enable a button on the contextmenustrip that allows him to open it in a different tab.

Dim Oelement as HTMLelement



Private Sub ContextMenuStrip1_Opening(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles ContextMenuStrip1.Opening

      If oElement.TagName = "A" Then

      mnuLink.Enabled = True

      Else

      mnuLink.Enabled = False

      End If       

End Sub



Private Sub mnuLinkNewTab_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles mnuLinkNewTab.Click

        Dim ofrm As New frmBrowser

        AppManager.AddTab(ofrm, oElement.GetAttribute("HREF"))

    End Sub

That code works on some links, but not others. Two examples would be on the bottom of Yahoo! (http://www.yahoo.com) homepage, where it says featured services, none of those links work, but where it says Do business with us, all of them work.

Can I please ask someone to explan the problem and provide some visual code.

Hello,
Is this web browser created by own, you derive from the WebBrowser class? I am not able to reproduce your issue for lacking of too much things. Could you elaborate more?
Thanks
