WordPress 1.0+ “blog with right click in IE” fix

Here is a small temporary fix as emulated from the Nucleus site (one of their answers is flawed and their own code has bugs, oh well)

Create a new file on the root of your blog called rightclick.php and put the following in there (replace open(‘http://… with your own servername):

<script type=”text/javascript” defer=”defer”>
doc=external.menuArguments.document;
lt=escape(doc.selection.createRange().text);
loglink=escape(external.menuArguments.location.href);
loglinktitle=escape(document.title);
open(‘http://yourserver.com/yourweblogdirectory/wp-admin/bookmarklet.php?text=’+lt+
‘&trackback=1&pingback=1&popupurl=’+loglink+’&popuptitle=’+loglinktitle,’bookmarklet’,’
scrollbars=no,width=480,height=590,left=100,top=150,status=yes’)
</script>

Now create another file on your desktop called wordpress.reg and put the following in there (again replace the varibles please):

REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MenuExt\Post To &WP : Mindful Musings]
@=”http://yourserver.com/yourwordpressdirectory/rightclick.php”
“contexts”=hex:31”

Now double click on the wordpress.reg file to add the information to the registry and the right click in IE should work at that point.
