When I right click a DMX folder or file I receive the normal IE9 right click menu. This menu covers the DMX menu. I need to hit Esc when this occures so I can access the DMX right click menu.

I also have the lastest JRE on the machine 1.6.0_24
DNN version

Any ideas?

I am having right click issues also and it seems to be occurring at random and in IE 7 & 8. In addition to right click not working when I attempt to click on the document at the top of the list in the top-right pane there is no response as if the IE/OS doesn't recognize a mouse click event is occurring. I also noticed that logging in with one account will cause this behavior but then when I log in with another account everything will work fine. This occurs at random but the amount of user complaints has got to the point where it needs to be addressed.

Peter - if you need me to make a video so you can get a better understanding of this issue let me know.

I am having this problem in all browsers on menus that have icons. Have tried in chrome, firefox, ie and safari (all latest versions, no betas). DNN 5.6.1 and DMX 5.3.7. Menu expand and right-click, it appears to just be the icons but I'm new to DMX.

Sounds like event bubbling is not working correctly in IE 9 (this happened in FF earlier as well). I'll need to replicate that here first.

@Travis: yes it'd help if you could send me a screencast of this.

@Jeremy: is that really the same problem? Travis was referring to the browser's context menu overlaying the DMX context menu. I have tested IE8/FF/Chrome and all latest versions (not IE9) and they do not display this issue.

It is also related to the skin. What is the doctype of your skin? The default DNN skin does not seem to have the mentioned issue.

Thanks peter for replying so quick. The skin we are using is the GO Skin for last years competition.

For me it looks like another bug in IE 9. If you directly return false oncontextmenu, menu won't shows up. But if false wiil be returned over another JS function, it woudn't be canceled...

Anyway if you return false on same level it would work. Peter, look at it: oncontextmenu="CancelContextMenu(event); return false;"

Hi guys,

The good news is: I found a solution. It has to do with the new way IE9 is handling the DOM.
But: Until now I've been able to do this only in jQuery so it will be rolled out in DMX 6 (in DMX 6 I will move the dependency to DNN 5). This means there won't be a fix before the summer. I do plan to roll out one last DMX 5 before then and I'll keep trying to solve it in that one as well (i.e. without a jQuery dependency).
