How would you determine what mouse buttons was clicked on a mouse event?
I would like to make the distinction between left and right click.

I am not sure about the click event (though it may be worth a try) but if you use the mousedown event which should be good enough, then you can check the "which" property of the event.
The which property is an integer that determine the mouse button, and the values are mapped like...
1 = Left Button
2 = Middle Button
3 = Right Button
Example code...
element.mousedown(ElementMouseDown);
function ElementMouseDown(e) {
switch(e.which){
case 1://left button
break;
case 2://middle button
break;
case 3://right button
break;
}
}
