In Web application is useful to disable text selection, it could be implemented by setting following handler <body onmousedown="event.preventDefault()>. Also you need to use context menu in some parts. You can use own menu by setting handler <body ... oncontextmenu="openMyContextMenu()">.
Unfortunately this doesn't work in Firefox 3 on Mac OS X.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. use the testcase.html attached below, copy it to disc on your Mac
2. open the testcase.html in Firefox 3
3. do right click (please use 2-button mouse)
Actual Results:
Nothing happens, no context menu.
Expected Results:
Context menu should appear.
Firefox 2 for Mac is not affected, Firefox 3 for Win is also not affected. You can use ctrl+click in Firefox 3 for Mac, but it could be annoying for many users.

This reminds of this (oldish) Camino bug: bug 312714.
The testcase linked in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=312714#c6 also affects Firefox 3.
Note that, on the testcase here, triggering the context menu with control+click works in both Camino (2.0a1pre) and Firefox3/Minefield latest.
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070206 Firefox/3.0.1
Reproduced the bug - tried 2 ways:
Method 1 Copied the test file to desktop.
Opened with BBedit to see what it was doing. saved file as test
created a new window with FF3
used open file with ff3 - opened test with FF3
FF3 sends an alert - file was downloaded ... etc - open with FF3
Blank page - right click page
Getting a pulldown alert - javascript Function Disabled!
Method 2 I tried the bug copying by moving the saved test icon from the desktop to the blank WEB page and got a pulldown menu resulting from a right click.
