[Javascript] Open in blank / if needed

Well, assuming the javascript function takes in a URL as a parameter, the correct way of coding it would be:

<a href="url.ext" onclick="myFunc(this.href")>linktext</a>

Which would allow the right-click to open in new tab/window.

If there is no URL reference, as is the case with some bizarre security implementations I've seen, it would be a lot more complicated.

He wants to be able to right click on any link and select "open in new 
window", even if the href of the link is "javascript:functionName()".

I can't think of any direct solution to this problem.
