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.javascript FAQ's:
http://www.jibbering.com/faq/#FAQ4_27

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,
Nige

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 ;-)
