Has anyone here implemented tabbed browser support in Flex? i.e. links in Flex content that can be opened in a new browser tab? (Note: browser tab ... not Flex tab.)
I see three possible options: 1) navigateToURL(); 2) TextField with htmlText containing html anchors; and 3) _javascript_.
For me the problems are ...
1) With navigateToURL(), how would you specify "new tab"?
2) With anchors in htmlText, Flash Player provides the context menu. The Flash Player browser plug-ins include in the context menu the option "Open in new window". (The freestanding Flash Player omits this option.)
3) With _javascript_, as a Flex/ActionScript developer I currently do not possess the knowledge how to code a _javascript_ solution. (fyi ... I have done some google searches on this, but so far no luck.) If anyone can point me to a _javascript_ code solution, it would be much appreciated :-)
Note: For those from Adobe that read this list ... With IE7's release and it's support for tabbed browsing, if Flash Player provides no support for opening links in tabs it will be increasing apparent that Flash Player is essentially unaware of tabbed browsers.)

I imagine it would be very difficult as not all browsers support tabs, and the implementations of those tabs are different in each. ie Firefox vs. IE7 vs. Safari vs Opera, etc.
