No, it's a bug in Firefox since long ago, I think that it was 2 or something like that.

The problem is that Firefox doesn't send the context menu event for several elements, and so the editor doesn't know that you want to edit it. It's related also to the problems while trying to edit with the toolbar buttons.

Hm, I think that indeed something could be wrong with checkboxes in CKEditor...

Consider the following code - it works correctly in FF...

<input id="myinput" type="checkbox"/>
<script>
   document.getElementById("myinput").oncontextmenu = function () {alert('hello')}
</script>

Hi Guys,

I'm having the same problem with context menu not appearing for certain elements.
Has/Will this problem ever be fixed?. Or is there a known work-around for this problem?

Thanks in advance!!!
