Try something like this:

function hideMenu()
{
document.getElementById('menu').style.display='none';
}

</script>

</head>

<body onClick="hideMenu();">
<a href="#" oncontextmenu="javascript:showMenu();return false;">Right Click here for menu</a><br>
<div id="menu" style="display:none;background-color:pink; border : 1px solid black; width:300px">
   <a href="javascript:hideMenu();alert('menu1 clicked');">Menu item 1</a><br>
   <a href="javascript:hideMenu();alert('menu2 clicked');">Menu item 2</a><br>
   <a href="javascript:hideMenu();alert('menu3 clicked');">Menu item 3</a><br>
   <a href="javascript:hideMenu();alert('menu4 clicked');">Menu item 4</a>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Thank you.

I want to use a graphic image instead of the text "Right Click here for menu". I also want to execute the selected option. I don't see where the variable where the menu choice has been saved. I will check to see if there is anything in a variable called "oncontextmenu".

With VS 2005 Express Edition I could use the contextmenu tool (that was perfect), but in Visual Web Developer I cannot find it and do not know how to create it. The only option I can find is the drop down and fly out menus in the navigation section.

Unfortunately, I have entered this code set a break point and I try to start debugging.

Nothing happens ... that has never happened before it would always says running IIS server on Port # and everything worked fine.

Now nothing.

I think I have a new and different problem.

I will try setting different options now although I did not before and if nothing else works I will back the entire current development project remove and try to reinstall everything. I can only hope that something works.

Any help on this contextmenu issue and being able to open a window at x and y with a simple blue menu bar and minimize and maximize and close. A gentleman called Bilal said he would email me a control for this to mdyrnaes@hotmail.com, but so far I have gotten nothing.

This would be amazing .

Thanks.

Michael
