[jQuery] Re: onRighClick method?
Don't underestimate the Opera browser because of external information, the Opera download counter is also around the millions and also I used to think (a long time ago) that Opera wasn't worth keeping in mind until I found out how many people are using it in my neighborhood and until I tried the browser myself.

I was being somewhat tongue in cheek. I know that many developers use Opera, but arguably Opera is a non-browser with ~<1% of the market. Anyway...I'm all for supporting multiple browsers, but we don't even test in Opera, in fact I've never tested in Opera for any site I've ever created. I've also never heard one complaint from any of the 100 or so sites I've developed. Not trying to be belligerent here...just so you know. andy _ From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Isaak Malik Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2008 8:33 AM To: jquery-en@googlegroups.com Subject: [jQuery] Re: onRighClick method?

That's the one I last tested in Opera 9.5 because I was also looking for
such a plugin and unfortunately it's not even working.

Actually, it's not that Opera doesn't support it as it has support for right click events but is disabled by default and context menus won't work as good as on firefox and yes for once also IE because just Opera discourages the use of context menus.

Hrm...
I can't find that contextMenu in the API on Remy's website. Is it just
missing? is it listed under something else?

The ContextMenu plugin you're referring to
(http://www.trendskitchens.co.nz/jquery/contextmenu/) works by listening for
the "contextmenu" event, e.g.
$(this).bind('contextmenu', function(e) {
// do cool stuff...
});
We use it pretty heavily (although with some mods to allow for activation on
left-click as well) and I can't think of any issues it has with Opera of the
top of my head.

I found a ContextMenu plugin but it was last updated almost a year
ago.
Alternately, are there any other plugins out there that would offer
ContextMenu support for right clicking?
