AFAIK, XHTML doesn't define those things; it defines how you write HTML in XML, not what's valid within that HTML. The latest HTML spec (still a work in progress) continues to list the contextmenu event.[1] None of which means you shouldn't try to avoid the contextmenu event when you can, given how it varies amongst browsers. :-) [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/webappapis.html#handler-oncontextmenu -- T.J.
