    script for right click

    Is there a javascript to make a right click on a page to display a message?
    Thank you,

    So... the guidance on this matter that you have received over in
    news:alt.html has not deterred you from asking this question over here?
    Ok... From the comp.lang.javas cript FAQ's:


    But you really should avoid using it (the solution - that is - not the
    FAQ's!) The context menu is used for far more than just viewing your source
    code or saving your images (and I can still view your source or save your
    images without it) so why break the user's browser for your own misguided
    ends?

    Cheers,

      Randy recently pointed out that the AOL browser has its own ideas about
      what the back button on its chrome should do and as a result the only
      way of getting the equivalent effect of a normal IE back button is to
      right click and choose back from the context menu. Still, there are only
      30-40 million people using the AOL browser, so it's not going to be
      hurting everyone ;-)
