i need help to make a div on seccond mouse button that triggers a script, can anyone help me with this.

Baisicly, i have a standered div with an id of ‘test’:

[code=html]<div id=”test”>This is a test div.</div>[/code]

All i want to do is to use javascript to trigger a function when the user seccond mouse-buttons on the div (and only that div)

Heres a [I]really[/I] baisc example:

[code=html]<script>
function divclick() {
alert(‘you seccond mouse-buttoned on this div.’);
}
</script>[/code]

Could someone please help…

[code=php]
<div id="test" oncontextmenu="alert('you seccond mouse-buttoned on this div.')">This is a test div.</div>
[/code]

@KorApr 08.2005 — I hope that you will use it wisely. As a user, I would like my default right-click mouse behaviour [b]not[/b] to be changed, except for strong and good reasons...

@robo_neojetsamauthorApr 09.2005 — lol, what i am doing is on this div, replacing the standered right-click menu with one of my own. Thanks for your help again.

@felgallApr 09.2005 — You need to remember that some browsers (eg. Opera) ignore any attempts to override the standard context menu functioning and that your script will not work for anyone using that browser.

@robo_neojetsamauthorApr 10.2005 — ok sure thing, thanks for that felgall, ill make is so it only shows up in specific browsers. Again, thanks for all your help you guys.

@robo_neojetsamauthorApr 11.2005 — one more quick question, is there a way of disabling the seccond mouse button menu? because it is getting in the way of my script

@KorApr 11.2005 — oncontextmenu="somefunction();[color=red]return false[/color]"

@robo_neojetsamauthorApr 11.2005 — Ya, i just worked that out myself.
