Showing menu based on right click on Point Geometry in Javascript

Question

I have implemented a vector layer(using javascript) in open layers which is having point geometry.

Now my requirement is to show menu just besides with the point whenever we do right-click on

point.

Can we do this in Open Layers?

Thanks, Gajendra

Answer 1

there is an information here about right click select feature. i havent try it but it looks like it works.

myMap is OpenLayers.Map object and myVectorLayer is... OpenLayers.Layer.Vector.

myMap.div.oncontextmenu = function noContextMenu(e) {
    if(!e){ //dear IE...
        var e = window.event;
        e.returnValue = false;
    }

    var f = myVectorLayer.getFeatureFromEvent(e);
    alert(f);
    //f is the pointed vector.feature :)

    return false; //Prevent display of browser context menu
} 

i hope it helps you...
