User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050321 Firefox/1.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050321 Firefox/1.0.2

I integrate the Mozilla as an active x control in my application,
the popup blocker is disabled.
I need a html file with a link which opens in a new window
(with the IE Actice X Control this works fine) so I create a link like the
following in my html file:

<a
href="http://www.intel.com/cd/products/services/emea/spa/notebook/centrino/196078.htm"
target="_blank" >
<img src="file:///d:\C_Programme\WLANSniffer\ADCache0.GIF" alt="" border=0 >
</a>

If I open the file in the mozilla browser everything works fine but if I open
the file in my active x control the new browser window do not start.
If I create a link without the part target="_blank" the link is opened in the
same window.
How can I create a link which opens a new browser window in my active x control?
Please can you tell me sone a work arround?
I integrate the active x file with the class webbrowser2 from microsoft and 
change the clsid.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a html file with a link which integrates the part target="_blank"
2.Opens this file in the mozilla active x control 
3.now try to activate the link
=> Nothing is happening

This sounds like an extension-related problem and not a bug. Please contact the
extension owner for more support or ask for help at http://forums.mozillazine.org/.

The ActiveX embedding API was removed in bug 662023 and friends, making this INVALID.
