Philippe, > > To summarize, the question is: should the "click" event fire when the user (on a Windows platform, for example) presses the Right mouse button to activate the browser "context menu"? > The current opinion is yes. The HTML4 idea was that the handler did the filtering (left, right, center, ...). > This needs to be clarified in the HTML4 and XHTML events module specification. In any case, the resolution of this issue is outside the scope of the DOM specification. I disagree, it is totally within the scope of the DOM and only the DOM. You see, the MouseEvent can and should be applied to all documents that can be viewed on a screen. This includes XML documents, not just HTML documents. Since this is not just a HTML only event, it should fall to the DOM Working Group to define how and when the event fires. -- Jeff Yates e-mail: PBWiz@PBWizard.com Homepage: http://www.PBWizard.com --
