I found a way to disable Flash right clicks. I got it to work for Internet Explorer, Mozilla, and Opera. I don’t have a Mac, so anyone with Safari, please test it out.
However, this actually disables it, meaning you can no longer retrieve information from users, including all mouse/keyboard input.
I did manage to get Internet Explorer to acccept input. But then who cares about that. For Mozilla and Opera, the flash movie is just hidden, but visible.
It’s basically a div layered on top of the flash movie so that it takes the right clicks, and not the flash movie. I used Javscript to disable right clicks for Mozilla and Internet Explorer so that when you click on it, it doesn’t do anything. For IE users, right click the flash movie. See what happens =)

This ingeneous fellow has found a way to allow you to use right click left click to move back - even when you’re hovering over a bit of Flash - I think it leads to unwanted side effects like you…
Thanks for your help. Really appreciate.
hey how do you do that right click thingy….can i have the url please…i need it..really…i really do…
It’s right there in the post.
I have to say you are full of it, you have not disabled the flash right click menu. All you have done is a java sript from dynamic drive and put it for the whole flash.html page. Thats not called disabling flash right click menu. Open http://mtsix.com/wp-content/uploads/flash.swf and the right click menu works. And by the way disabling active java script in ur page flash.html , right click becomes active.
It is illegal to hack the published swf file and get rid of the right click menu. And as for disabling javascript, the right click of the Flash menu still does not appear. After all, you cannot hide the browser right click menu if you disable Javascript.
The question I have is… why?
Hm.. That’s a really good question James. I actually don’t know. It might come in handy one day I guess.
