I have the window's name set to 'window'.

This is driving me nuts. I can't seem to get this right. here's what I have now:
<Style TargetType="TabItem">

    <Setter Property="ContextMenu">
        <Setter.Value>
            <ContextMenu DataContext="{Binding DataContext, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=Window}}"
                    x:Name="tabMenu">

                <MenuItem Header="Close" 
                    Command="{Binding CloseTabCommand}"
                    CommandParameter="{Binding}"/>

                <MenuItem Header="Close All Tabs" 
                    Command="{Binding CloseAllTabsCommand}"
                    CommandParameter="{Binding}"/>

                <MenuItem Header="Close All But This" 
                    Command="{Binding CloseAllButThisTabCommand}"
                    CommandParameter="{Binding}"/>

            </ContextMenu>
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>

    <Setter Property="Template">
        <Setter.Value>
            <ControlTemplate TargetType="TabItem">
                <Grid Name="Panel">
                    <ContentPresenter x:Name="ContentSite"
                                VerticalAlignment="Center"
                                HorizontalAlignment="Center"
                                ContentSource="Header"
                                Margin="10,2"/>
                </Grid>
                <ControlTemplate.Triggers>
                    <Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">
                        <Setter TargetName="Panel" Property="Background" Value="LightSkyBlue" />
                    </Trigger>
                    <Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="False">
                        <Setter TargetName="Panel" Property="Background" Value="White" />
                    </Trigger>
                </ControlTemplate.Triggers>
            </ControlTemplate>
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>

</Style>
The Output Window shows
System.Windows.Data Error: 4 : Cannot find source for binding with reference 'RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType='System.Windows.Window', AncestorLevel='1''. BindingExpression:Path=DataContext; DataItem=null; target element is 'ContextMenu' (Name='tabMenu'); target property is 'DataContext' (type 'Object')
Again, it looks like it can't find the Window.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.
