About The Project

The idea is fairly simple:

1-Use Javascript in the HTML container page to disable the right-click on top of the SWF.

2-Capture the event and pass it to a function that communicates with Flash via the External Interface

3-In Actionscript the function called from Javascript does whatever you need to display your own custom context-menu.
