How to disable right-click menu

Hi there - I have a few websites (Dynalist, Box.com) that are very important to me, and they use ctl-click / right-click to access certain functions. Whenever I try to access those in Firefox I'm greeted instead by Firefox's right-click menu. Is there some way to disable this right-click menu? I don't have this problem in other browsers (Safari, Chrome).

Mac OS Sierra, current build of Firefox Quantum.

Thanks in advance! Rich

That is something the webmaster has to program into their websites for all Browsers that access their site. The Browser will do as much or little as permitted by the site.

Thanks for the answer - really wish there was a way for the *user* to disable it since I don't need or want or use it - I don't have it in other browsers, and it just gets in the way of some of these web-based apps.

thanks again, rich
