.live() wrongly firing upon right click

[Iraê-2]

Hi all,

I was debugging an app of mine just to find out that everytime I right-
clicked something with .live('click',fn) on it Firefox would fire my
handler. This is not supposed to happen. I've made an test case and
tested it in IE, FF, Safari and Chrome. Only in Firefox this happens:

http://jquery.nodnod.net/cases/284

Afterward, when I got to the bugtracker I found out it was already
reported:

http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/4197

I'll try to spending some time trying to fix this later. Just bringing
the important issue here just in case, since I'm very busy this days.

Best regards,
-- Irae

That's also the case with input and textarea elements. A possible fix
(that could slow down events) in liveHandler():

(event.js, 581)
-- if ( this.fn.call(this.elem, event, this.fn.data) === false )
++ if ( (event.button === 2 && /input|a|textarea|button/i.test
(elem.nodeName)) || this.fn.call(this.elem, event, this.fn.data) ===
false )
     return (stop = false);

Maybe doing the nodeName check at bind time and storing it with data()
could create less overhead, I don't know.

We had this issue very recently when I switched some things from bind() -> live().  

As a quick workaround I just inspect the `which` parameter on the event passed to the handler to determine which mouse button was pushed, but it'd be nice if live() acted like .click() and bind().

Here's some more info:

The basic problem is that the browser is firing a "click" event at the
document level for a right click, even though the element itself
doesn't see a click event.
