You can easily do tell which mouse button was pressed by checking the which property of the event object on mouse events

/*
  1 = Left   Mousebutton
  2 = Centre Mousebutton
  3 = Right  Mousebutton
*/

$([selector]).mousedown(function(e) {
    if (e.which === 3) {
        /* Right Mousebutton was clicked! */
    }
});
