The mechanism enables author-developers to define the context menu declaratively, through markup, by using a "contextmenu" attribute whose value is the ID of a particular menu element in the same document. http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/interactive-elements.html#context-menus 448524 1 mike 2011-08-09 05:18:25 -0700 Mozilla are working on an implementation of this that looks like it will land soonish https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617528 448531 2 jan.varga 2011-08-09 05:44:14 -0700 Actually the basic implementation has already landed.

We have started working on html5 menu item (https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58454) and also be working on context menu. So can you please share the overall architecture/design documents.Also it will be good if the same can be posted as a webkit blog and/or on a webkit-dev list.That way other people can also share thoughts. 469956 5 jan.varga 2011-09-20 01:48:51 -0700 Ok, I'll put together some info for you... The most import thing is that our implementation doesn't use the command API to generate custom context menu items and that we added a new element <menuitem>. In the meantime you can check out the patch: https://bug617528.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=551436 472971 6 xqb748 2011-09-25 22:31:25 -0700 (In reply to comment #5) > Ok, I'll put together some info for you... > > The most import thing is that our implementation doesn't use the command API to generate custom context menu items and that we added a new element <menuitem>. > > In the meantime you can check out the patch: > https://bug617528.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=551436 Thanks for info. Is there any plan to push these new element/changes to spec? 472974 7 jan.varga 2011-09-25 22:50:47 -0700 (In reply to comment #6) > Thanks for info. > Is there any plan to push these new element/changes to spec? the discussion is still ongoing http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13608 506845 8 jan.varga 2011-11-21 03:56:07 -0800 hey, if you're still working on it, could you comment in the w3c <menuitem> bug ? http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13608 507468 9 xqb748 2011-11-22 01:37:17 -0800 of late our priorities has been changed.so I am not actively working on this now. As for <menuitem> is considered, I feel it's better to know the opinion of larger webkit community. 669102 10 bronislav.klucka 2012-07-13 09:02:43 -0700 any news here? 954335 11 elijahel 2013-11-26 13:42:52 -0800 I'm currently working on an open source Web IDE (Eclipse Orion) and having this feature across all browsers would be very beneficial to us. Any plans to complete the implementation? 1887947 12 ahmad.saleem792 2022-07-31 05:23:40 -0700 <menuitem> is marked as obsolete: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/obsolete.html#non-conforming-features https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/2742 Blink also dropped it here: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git/+/e90a0487386316a1e97f69159f20fbe5933cb3b9 Gecko dropped it here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1372276 ______ I think we can mark this as "RESOLVED WONTFIX".
