hello guys,
how I can restrict a user to access a link e.g
when a user right click on a link a message will pop up, that you are unable to access this link.

If the user is not allowed to click on the link, it shouldn't be there. You could at least make it hidden (use display: hidden for the element. You can invoke that via css or DOM). Forget about the right-click and middle-click blocking. That won't help. Browsers can be set to not accept right-click and middle-click for javascript rendering those blockers useless.

You could have all links work only if javascript is turned on and for each link call a function that checks a cookie to see if the user is allowed to activate the link. If the user is not, then display an alert box. NOT a very friendly way of doing things though.

This all depends on what specifically, you are trying to do.

Shadow I am talking about, that when a user "right button click"(mouse) on the link, then a dialog box would appear.
Is there a way to do this.

Like this, but with right-click?

<a href="http://www.google.com" onclick="alert('Hello')">Click </a>

If so, then you can use this as a basis. However, it will not work for everyone. Specifically Opera users since "allow javascript to accept right-clicks" is turned off by default.

Also remember that tabbed browsing is very popular and middle-click to open in a new tab is used a lot, so you will want to cover the middle-click action too.

It might be better to use a button and just have an onlick event. Right-click and middle click won't work on it.

Or make it look less like a button.

<input style="background-color: #ffffff; border: 1px solid #fff; padding: 5px; margin: 0px;" type="button" value="click me" onclick="alert('Hello');window.location='http://www.google.com'"/>

If you want your own customized right-click menu, it is possible, but it would just be DHMTL.

If you are not looking for that, then a button like this might work.

<input type="button" onclick="alert('Hello');window.location='http://www.google.com'"/>

(Won't be activated by right and middle-click.)

You can also use the onmousedown even for a link. It will capture both left and middle-click; leaving only right-click to be delt with.
