Answer: 
To enable right click on a particular element on the body while disabling the right click on the rest of the body (in html), you wil have to put the required element (whose right click you want to enable) into an iframe. And disable the right click on main body like this....

Main Body

```
<html>
<head>
<title>Your Title</title>
</head>
<body  oncontextmenu="return false;">
<iframe src="frame1.html">
</iframe>
</body>
</html>

```

frame1.html

```
<html>
<body>
<textarea> Your text, u can right click here </textarea>
</body>
</html>

```

if anyone else has a better answer please post it here, thanx everyone.
<http://www.quirksmode.org/js/events_properties.html#button> has probably all the information you need. You get the click event and test to see which keycode it is. Then choose to return false or true depending on where the click came from.
