*hiya!*
It's common in standard user interfaces, that a right click opens
a context menu.. and I would call TYPO3's clickmenu a context menu;
Now there's a Javascript event called "oncontextmenu" that works in
all recent browsers like IE 5+, Netscape 6+, Safari, Firefox, ...
I've changed the following line in typo3/template.php (method
wrapClickMenuOnIcon, line 294) and it works like a charm:
-------
return $returnOnClick ? $onClick : '<a href="#" oncontextmenu="'.htmlspecialchars($onClick).'" onclick="'.htmlspecialchars($onClick).'">'.$str.'</a>';
-------
Please think about it, IMHO that's a big improvement on usability!
(don't tell me that you've never right clicked on the icons) ;-)
There are some other occurences of "loadTopMenu" (copy, ..) so please
make a grep for that and implement it wherever needed!
(though this should be configurable as usual to fit the personal needs)
tia, bye
Wolfgang
