Question

My requirement is I need to know what value is selected in a text field when right-click on the specific value portion.

e.g. Suppose current value in the text field is “[e-mail], [e-mail], [e-mail]”, when I move the mouse over “[e-mail]” and right click, program should know I have chosen that email address.

I already implemented it for left-click (by checking event.selectionStart), but in Firefox, right-click will not move the edit cursor to the clicked position, so wherever I right click at, the event.selectionStart keeps the same value.

Any idea?
Thanks…

OK. In firefox, event.rangeOffset can be used.
