Disabling Right Click across the application
There is a requirement for us to disable mouse right click across the application. Is there any centralized place to make this change?

Hi,
This code worked well in Chrome. But it is still an issue in IE. I can still right click in IE and it opens the context menu. Can we restrict the right click across the browsers?

Hi,
I have tried the below code in IE and it seems to be working.
<script>
function clickIE() {
if (document.all) {
return false;
}
}
function clickNS(e) {
if (document.layers || (document.getElementById && !document.all)) {
if (e.which == 2 || e.which == 3) {
return false;
}
}
}
if (document.layers) {
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);
document.onmousedown = clickNS;
}
else {
document.onmouseup = clickNS;
document.oncontextmenu = clickIE;
}
document.oncontextmenu = new Function("return false")
</script>
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Rachit

Hi Rachit,
Sorry for the confusion. Ur code is working for IE and chrome as of now. Actually i had below code in my html fragment:
document.addEventListener('contextmenu', event => event.preventDefault());
I removed it altogether and added your code. Then it started working.
Thank you so much for all your help.
