Question

So as the title says how could i do it?

After some googling i got this code together:

$('.lines').mousedown(function(event) {
    if(event.which == 1){
        console.log("left");
    }else{
        event.preventDefault();
        console.log("right");
    }
});

So first i need to determine which button was pushed because i’m going to use different action. but event.preventDefault for some reason doesn’t do it’s job when right mouse button is clicked.

Please try that:

$(document).ready(function()
{ 
    $(document).bind("contextmenu",function(e){
        return false;
    }); 
});

Actually, it’s annoying, when you can’t use right mouse on a website.

You can disable it for any particular block in the same way:

$(document).ready(function()
{ 
    $('#test').bind("contextmenu",function(e){
        return false;
    }); 
});​

Sample HTML:

<div id="test"> ​No right clicks allowed here! </div>​

And sample CSS:

#test { width: 200px; height: 200px; background: red; }
