Question:
Can I disable the Windows context menu that normally shows up
when the user clicks the right mouse button?
Answer: In Netscape Navigator 4 or
Internet Explorer 4 or newer browsers,
you can disable the right-button menu.
For example, it has been disabled on this page.
If you use version 4 browser (or newer) under Windows,
right-click anywhere on this page to verify that the menu is disabled indeed!
(In older browsers, the context menu would still show up.)
To disable the right-button menu, insert the following
code in your page's <HEAD> section:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function mouseDown(e) {
if (parseInt(navigator.appVersion)>3) {
var clickType=1;
if (navigator.appName=="Netscape") clickType=e.which;
else clickType=event.button;
if (clickType!=1) {
alert ('Right mouse button is disabled.')
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
if (parseInt(navigator.appVersion)>3) {
document.onmousedown = mouseDown;
if (navigator.appName=="Netscape")
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);
}
//-->
<script>
 Back
