Can't stop context menu from onmousedown like in 4x

Here is the problem. when you run javascript on a mouse right click event and
display alert, only the alert should be displayed. Whereas, the menu (that is
normally displayed on right click) and the alert are displayed. It appears to be
cosmetic. But if you actually select back the program locks up (on some
combination of navigation.sometimes locks on a back followed by forward).
you need to press right click slightly longer to easily replicate this problem.
Please see attached code.
Thanks

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<script language="javascript">

if (navigator.appName == 'Netscape'
&& e.which == 3) {
alert("Netscape")
return false;
}
return true;
}
document.onmousedown=click
</script>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
Do not right click!!!

The basic issue here is that the UI guys decided to change the context menu to
appear as a result of clicks now as opposed to mousedowns. So the code you have
needs to prevent the click to stop the context menu, not the mousedown. I have
a dupe of this around somewhere, I'll take a look.

Can't find the dupe. Setting milestone to moz1.0 and attaching to 4x event
compatibility tracking bug.

I think this bug is invalid, to quote "vladimire@netscape.com" in bug 83115:
--
For Netscape 6 use e.preventDefault() method to cancel the default action like
the popup menu.
