捕获事件点击“在新标签中打开链接”javascript或jquery - 隐藏URL

Question

I know that I can capture the events of click: left, right and middle button by:

contextmenu    
e.which

But, I need to capture the event click of "Open Link in New Tab": When you do right click in a link, it shows a menu with the option "Open Link in New Tab".

How can I capture that event ?

PD: is not the right click event, is the event when you do click in "Open Link in New Tab".

The main reason is, I'm trying to cloak links for affiliated sites, but when I do right click and choose the option "Open Link in New Tab", not working, it doesn't show me the real hidden url.

I found the script searching in google but I edited the script to my needs, but I have the problem that I told above.

The code:

(function ($) {

    ninja_href(".ninja-href");

function ninja_href_call(e,which)
{

  var ninja_url = e.target.getAttribute('data-ninja-url');
  var ninja_target = e.target.getAttribute('data-ninja-target');

  if(ninja_target == null || typeof ninja_target == undefined || which === 3)
  {
    ninja_target = "_self";
  }

  if(which === 2)
  {
    ninja_target = "_blank";
  }


  var win = window.open(ninja_url, ninja_target);
  if (win && ninja_target == "_blank")
  {
    win.focus();
  }
}



function ninja_href(element)
{
  if(element == null || typeof element == undefined){
    element = ".ninja-href";
  }

  if (document.addEventListener) 
  {
    document.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
      if(e.target && e.target.matches(element))
      {
        if (e.which === 1 || e.which === 2) 
        {
          e.preventDefault();
          ninja_href_call(e,e.which);

        }
      }
    }, false);

    document.addEventListener('mousedown', function(e) {
        if(e.target && e.target.matches(element))
        {
            if (e.which === 2) 
            {
                e.preventDefault();
                ninja_href_call(e,e.which);

            }
        }

    }, false);

    document.addEventListener('contextmenu', function(e) {
        console.warn(e);
      if(e.target && e.target.matches(element))
      {

      }
    }, false);
  } else {
    document.attachEvent('click', function() {
      if(e.target && e.target.matches(element))
      {
        if (e.which === 1 || e.which === 2) 
        {
          e.preventDefault();
          ninja_href_call(e,e.which);

        }
      }
    });

  }

}

}(window.jQuery));

Any idea

Please take a look below... This is how you can handle it.

<script type='text/javascript'>
jQuery(function($){
    $('a').mousedown(function(event) {
        switch (event.which) {
            case 1:
                //alert('Left mouse button pressed');
                $(this).attr('target','_self');
                break;
            case 2:
                //alert('Middle mouse button pressed');
                $(this).attr('target','_blank');
                break;
            case 3:
                //alert('Right mouse button pressed');
                $(this).attr('target','_blank');
                break;
            default:
                //alert('You have a strange mouse');
                $(this).attr('target','_self"');
        }
    });
});
