通过右键单击从当前或新选项卡中的href调用Angular $ scope.Function？

Question

I have following HTML:

<a href="" ng-click='redirectToEntity("B-",obj.id")'>Click me and Process function and then redirect</a>

This code does process function and redirect to page which I am targeting, but this does not work for Open in new tab by right clicking . I've tried numerous solution but none worked for me. I need to execute redirectToEntity function only when clicked on "Open in New Tab".

Answer 1

In order to let the normal right-click menu work, the <a> needs to be a regular anchor tag. So it can't be activated by ng-click . If all that redirectToEntity() does is generate a url and redirect from within the controller, maybe instead you should just generate the url and add it to the href like this <a href="{{linkGeneratedInController}}"> .

Alternatively, you can also use a directive to bind an action to the right click, as is shown here .
