Is there a way to rightclick
 
Some Ajax webapplications need a rightclick to show a menu. Is there a way to do this? Tap and hold only shows the browsers own menu, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Yaser88 maybe I am a bit dense,but what do you mean by "the midle left one" ? The onyl kinda three lined button that I can see is the menu button on the lower left corner. But this only brings up the application menu. It's no right click. Would you be so kind to clarify this for me. timwatt already seems to get it :-)

How sad :-( It does not give me the context menu of the ajax application I am trying to use over the web. (Redmine issues tracker). I am flabbergasted that nobody else has problems with this.(There is of course always the possibility that I am too stupid.)

I tried webkit for the builtin browser, I tried fennec, and it was a no go.
I hoped that there would be something like "press Fn and then click with the stylus" or similar.

I agree that right clicks are not really practical in a stylus device, but come on, even MacOs saw the light eventually. And all those rich web applications are left without a paddle.

Sorry that I sound a bit miffed, but I bought the Nokia to have a small portable device to use with the software from www.redmine.org and now I can't because there is no right click for ajax? This seems so very unlike Linux that there is no workaround.

Oh well it's not your fault. Sorry to have vented. (let's see if I can modify Redmine to work without a rightclick, ey?)

:-) Yeah, I'm thinking of accelerating it to check if you are right.. But that would be rash. Where there is linux there is hope that software problems can be solved...eventually (maybe)

Did you try this?

I also filed this wish for Tear a while ago.

I guess he doesn't mean the physical click, but that js menu override is not working.
