Description Nux 2010-06-15 19:49:47 UTC
Steps:
1. Right click on e.g. Talk tab.

Expected:
Open in new window/tab option in the menu.

Actual result:
No such link, it's just as if the "a" tag was not there.

I must say I've seen a lot from IE, but nothing similar yet... Strangely enough this is because of the "span" element inside the link.

Yeah I know it's a bug in IE, but what fun what webdev be if it wasn't for IE ;-(.

I think the span is there *precisely* to make the tabs work in IE. Looks a duplicate of bug 23490
