Lightbox (prototype.js) to open on right mouse click

Hi,

jquery currently doesn't work on my website (conflict with existing script), so I need a lightbox (prototype.js I guess) script to be opened when someone uses the right mouse click on my website. This is to prevent users from copying image address - in lightbox there will be code how to embed particular image elsewhere (therefore the lightbox needs to support html).

I like this script: http://www.artviper.net/bumpbox-demo/index.html , however I don't know how to fire it on right mouse click.


Thanks
Tom

You'll have to add the something like the following after in the document.ready section:
  
$([selector]).mousedown(function(e) {
    if (e.which === 3) {
        // do your onclick action here...

    }
});

What do you mean? Do you already have a jQuery plugin and you want to add another one? Are you using Joomla or something?

You can have as many jQuery plugins on one page that you want. You just have to make small mods. Post some code and I'll help you out.

Nope, I have custom made website, but I think it uses prototype.js (not sure about it - can't see it anywhere included on the website).  If I inculde jquery library some parts of my website stop working like this star rating for example:

<div class="ratingRate" id="userRating">
					<a href="#" onclick="return rate(<?php echo $iv->image['id'];?>,1);" onmouseout="sr('userRating',0);" onmouseover="sr('userRating',1);"></a>
					<a href="#" onclick="return rate(<?php echo $iv->image['id'];?>,2);" onmouseout="sr('userRating',0);" onmouseover="sr('userRating',2);"></a>
					<a href="#" onclick="return rate(<?php echo $iv->image['id'];?>,3);" onmouseout="sr('userRating',0);" onmouseover="sr('userRating',3);"></a>
					<a href="#" onclick="return rate(<?php echo $iv->image['id'];?>,4);" onmouseout="sr('userRating',0);" onmouseover="sr('userRating',4);"></a>
					<a href="#" onclick="return rate(<?php echo $iv->image['id'];?>,5);" onmouseout="sr('userRating',0);" onmouseover="sr('userRating',5);"></a>
				</div>

Open in new window


I just know that once I include jquery in my page header, parts of my website stop working, so I can't use jQuery, therefore I'm looking for prototype/mootools lightbox which can be fired once someone presses right mouse button.

Basically, include the noConfilcts() call and use "jQuery" as opposed to "$" in you jQuery code.

Ok, I didn't try it yet, however I'm surprised one can use these two libraries together! Thanks a lot. I'll try this solution.

Now how about to fire onclick action with jquery if someone presses only right mouse button over the element?
