html-widget-new-window

Arguments: html-widget

This generic function is called when the user clicks on a link that requests that a new browser window be made. It should return true to allow the new window to be made, or nil to disallow it.

The default method will call the widget's on-new-window function if it has one, returning what it returned, and otherwise will do nothing. An application could add methods for a subclass of html-widget.

html-widget is the html-widget that is requesting a new window.

When allowing the new browser to be made, currently on Linux the return value needs to be a new html-widget that you have created, whereas on Windows the return value may be any non-nil value to indicate whether the control is allowed to make a new Internet Explorer window itself.

See the html-widget control.
