Hello all,
I am working on a tabbed web browser and it is going great!
Only one problem! When someone presses on a link that has a target of _blank or a new window, it opens in IE!

I have tried things like:

Private Sub newbrowse_newwindow(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs)
		e.Cancel = True
End Sub

but that only cancels IE from opening. What I want is it to open in a new tab. I have set it so that

NewTab()

opens the new tab to the users homepage.

Basically, I need to find out how to get the URL of what the browser is trying to open.
Would anyone be able to help??

Many thanks

Jamie

Sorry, I don't understand.
Do you mean Visual Basic.net?

I am using Visual Basic Express Edition.

Visual Basic 2005 or 2008 Express Edition is VB.NET, moved to VB.NET forum

... have you looked for a tutorial on "build a tabbed web browser with Vb.NET"?

[gbertoli3]

You could try something similar to this

NewTab()
newbrowse.Navigate("url goes here")

Hope this helps

Ok this is a quick reply.
Thanks gbertoli3 for your reply however I need to find out how to get the url that the person attempted to go to. That would then go in the Navigate() brackets.

Not sure if this will work but try anyways

NewTab()
newbrowse.Navigate(newbrowse.Url.ToString())

Hope this helps

Thanks but this opens the new tab and then opens IE with the same address.
I still did the e.cancel = true.

Should I do that?

Many thanks
