Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Thanks.
Got a customer that's running IE on the Mac. Seems to be a weird mixture of IE for Win and DOM and I can't get it to work quite right. Mozilla is the backup plan, but I think I'm gonna ask around to see if anyone local has a Mac so I can debug my app.
New Workaround.
There's an 'onContextMenu' event that is supported for Internet Explorer for Windows but not supported on IE for Mac. It's not part of the W3C spec but the latest versions of Mozilla support it as well. Problem on the Mac (I got to play on a brand new iMac today) is that when you hit Ctrl-Click, the OS intercepts it and never sends an event to the browser JavaScript.

To work around the problem, I just associated the popup menu with an Alt-Click. Have to train the users, but it should do the trick.
New We gave up.
We found IE 5.1/Mac was too slow and wouldn't display dropdowns right. Fortuntely, it's an intranet app and can dictate to users - we told them to use Mozilla 1.0. :-)

Why do you ask me? You know I cannot do this thing anymore with the bugs.
