If you want to allow both clicks and new tab clicks, try this:
Render an anchor tag with the history token as the href:
<a href="#myToken">Click Me</a>
In your Cell, catch the click event and do the following:
- If shift or ctrl is pressed, ignore the event. The user is opening a
new window.
- If the right button was pressed, ignore the event. The user will see
the context menu.
- If the left button was pressed, call Event.preventDefault() to prevent
the page reload in IE, then call History.newItem("myToken").
