Using THTML component
The fist version of my training software had got a simple hypertext system I had programming myself. In this hypertext, a right-click on a word was causing the apearance of a popup window with the translation of the word under the mouse cursor.
In the second version of the software, I've replaced my hypertext by Dave Baldwin's THTML which offers a lot of advantages and allows very good presentation on the screen. Yet, in HTML Viewer, I dont manage to offer the same  function "right-click=translation".
How can I allow it in THTML Viewer component ?

Very fine component!
I probably don't understand you'r question.
What you mean when you write
"right-click=translation".
This component have virtual procedure URLAction;
I think so you must ovveride this proc.

Of course MouseUp and MouseDown you must override too.

Right-click=translation
means that when you click with the
right-button of the mouse you must get the word under the mouse cursor,
then find his translation in a lexicon
causing the apearance of a popup window with the translation of the word.
All word of the hypertext have to be translated (in a database). This is an educational software of languages (e.g. german with
all words translated in english or french).
Some word are also used as links to others pages or actions.
Dave Baldwin suggest to me that I should find a solution from his
"SelText".
If "SelText" allow to select a word with the mouse (and therefore to search it in the lexicon) is there any way, by programming - modifying the sources
- to automatically select the word under the cursor, rather than select it pixel by pixel dragging the mouse ?
