I need to capture right mouse click event inside a iframe in asp.net using any javascript or jquery codes.

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
<title>Detect IFrame Clicks</title>

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="JScript/jquery-1.7.1.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="JScript/jquery.ui.core.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="JScript/jquery.ui.widget.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="JScript/jquery.ui.mouse.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">        
    document.onmousedown = onMousebtClick
    var isOverIFrame = false;
    $(document).ready(function() {
        function processMouseOut() {
            isOverIFrame = false;
            top.focus();
        }

        function processMouseOver() {
            isOverIFrame = true;
        }

        function processIFrameClick() {
            if (isOverIFrame) {
                log("CLICK << detected. ");
                onMousebtClick();
            }
        }

        function log(message) {
            var console = document.getElementById("console");
            var text = console.value;
            text = text + message + "n";
            console.value = text;
        }

        function attachOnloadEvent(func, obj) {
            if (typeof window.addEventListener != 'undefined') {
                window.addEventListener('load', func, false);
            } else if (typeof document.addEventListener != 'undefined') {
                document.addEventListener('load', func, false);
            } else if (typeof window.attachEvent != 'undefined') {
                window.attachEvent('onload', func);
            } else {
                if (typeof window.onload == 'function') {
                    var oldonload = onload;
                    window.onload = function() {
                        oldonload();
                        func();
                    };
                } else {
                    window.onload = func;
                }
            }
        }

        function init() {
            var element = document.getElementsByTagName("iframe");
            for (var i = 0; i < element.length; i++) {
                element[i].onmouseover = processMouseOver;
                element[i].onmouseout = processMouseOut;
            }
            if (typeof window.attachEvent != 'undefined') {
                top.attachEvent('onblur', processIFrameClick);
            }
            else if (typeof window.addEventListener != 'undefined') {
                top.addEventListener('blur', processIFrameClick, false);
            }
        }

        attachOnloadEvent(init);

    });

Thank you for visiting the Q&A section on Magenaut. Please note that all the answers may not help you solve the issue immediately. So please treat them as advisements. If you found the post helpful (or not), leave a comment & I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Method 1

It is possible if the page inside an iframe is on the same domain.

IFrame page at same domain:
http://fiddle.jshell.net/rathoreahsan/MNtw8/8/show/

See Demo:
http://jsfiddle.net/rathoreahsan/gJtkW/

While if you access the page of an other domain inside an iframe like you are doing then it is not recommended.

Method 2

Hey: this might help:

or

This is not possible I’m afraid. When you’re inside the iframe, you’re
in a second tag… Unless you own what’s inside the
iframe and are able to put your Javascript on the page within then
it’s impossble. iframes are very limited for many many security
reasons.

Please let me know if anyone thinks otherwise, happy to take this post off.
