Has the "Right click function" been disabled? I haven't been able to use it on this site lately and it's making it difficult to compose some of my threads.

I am using IE5.5 and the right-click works fine.

I am thinking this particular glitch may be down to your own software/set-up and, if so, the question might be better placed in the "Computer Forum"....

.... people there will probably ask:-

a) what browser/OS are you using?
b) what happens if you also hold down the Control key when left-clicking on a link?
c) are you getting the same problem on other sites?
d) when did you last clear your cache?
e) when did you last re-boot?
f) when did you last re-install?

That is not to say that any of this will solve the problem, though!

Sorry about the post..........It was my computer The problem is now fixed

The strange thing is that I was able to use the right click on most other sites Re-starting the computer fixed the problem

OK. What does right-clicking do?

Right-click on a link (or left-click while holding down the Control key) and you can open the link in a new window.

Thanks! Didn't know that one.

For <B>Wizdar</B>'s benefit, in IE6.x, I'm pretty sure the default is SHIFT-Left Click to open in a new window.

Also, the right-click (in IE) will allow you to quickly access countless functions on images, links, frames, pages, selected text, etc.

The irony is that before (twice) typing those bon mots I actually tested the function and it worked. But I was, in fact, holding down the Shift key and not the Control.

I <i>said</i> this should be in the Computer Forum!!!! I'd have got it right then
