Question: How do I detect what object or ID or the user right-clicked on? I'm using the onContextMenu to trigger a function but I don't know how to detect the target.

Answer: 
```
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
    if (document.addEventListener) {
        document.addEventListener('contextmenu', function(e) {
            alert(e.target.nodeName); //or e.target.getAttribute('id') 
            e.preventDefault();
        }, false);
    } else {
        document.attachEvent('oncontextmenu', function(e) {
            alert(window.event.srcElement.nodeName); //or e.srcElement and then like above
            window.event.returnValue = false;
        });
    }
</script>
</head>
<body>
<span>Lorem ipsum...</span><br/>
body content
</body>
</html>

```

PS. I've seen similar code before ;)
Your handler should accept an event object as its parameter; the srcElement property of the event will be the object that triggered the event.
