How do i focus on parent window, when i opened new window by using right click menu?

Hi Mozilla,

I want to show a parent window(which i came from), when i opened new window by using right click menu? Currently when i am opening new window, it will focus on new window instead of parent window. Is there any browser setting required to persist parent window regardless of new windows?

Thanks, Vijay

Hi InfinityOne,

Thanks for the above information. But i would like to explain the exact problem what i am facing: 1) let's goto any site which is having no of links in home page. 2) I opened a link by using mouse right-click menu 'Open Link in a New IWndow'. But it will take to me ina new window instead of previous(parent) window. Here my question is : i want to implement the 'Open Link a new Tab' functionality to 'Open Link a new Window'. For this, Is there any solutions?

Thanks, Vijayk
