probably beaten to death-disabling context menu

[andrew]

Been searching around and seems that most people say it's impossible
because people can steal your code or images a million different ways
but here's what I want to do:
I'm trying to make a javascript slideshow. I want the left click to
next slide but the right-click to go to the previous slide.
My code works. It does what I want. But every time I right click on
the div in addition to going to previous slide it also opens up the
context menu.
I am not trying to prevent people from stealing code or anything. Just
don't want them to have to be able to easily change slides without
navigating around or messing with the keyboard.
Does anyone know of a way?

The code I use does the following:

if( event.preventDe fault )
{
event.preventDe fault();
}

event.returnVal ue = false;

return true;

Which stops the context menu from being displayed an IE and Mozilla.
