Fri, 30 Jan 2009 17:18:24 +0000 http://www.clientcide.com/?p=755#comment-31881 My suggestion was that the trigger option should be a function. That way I could define things like, say, right clicking only on images brings up the menu, or only images inside divs with a specific class, but only if the user has checked a box. Or whatever.

I didn't connect the "trigger option" to "event type" when I skimmed the code.. That small tidbit makes the whole class a lot more versatile. Guess ddmenu has something to learn from you then :) I see your point with ctrl+click, doubleclick would be a better way obviously. (using opera by default, ctrl+shift+click for new window, didn't remember FF and ctrl+click there..) How about making trigger support array? That way you could have contextmenu AND doubleckick as a backup.. Good point, David.

If you take a look at the options in my menu class, I provide a "trigger" option which allows you to determine which event you would like the menu to display on. You could display it on the "click" event if you wanted (obviously I don't recomment that). I would NOT use control+click because that would prevent me from opening a link in a new window. I think double-click would be better as it has no real purpose inside the browser. I disagree Jens.

Should learn a bit from ddmenu, and add ctrl+click as an alternative, and also maybe give the option to switch between right- and left-click.. (I can actually see a few cases where that would come in handy) Guess this should have gone in the comments at dawidwalsh.name, but no comment fields on the blog post.. so..
