MenuEvent.isEditable

This functionality has not landed in a stable Opera version yet, but you can use it already in Opera Next.

Description:

The isEditable attribute is true if the activated element is editable (i.e. if it is a text input or text area), otherwise its value is false (default).

Syntax:

readonly Boolean isEditable

Example:

In this example, a menu item is added to the context menu for editable elements only. When the menu item is clicked, a message is shown in the console after a further check that the element is editable.

  var itemProps = {
    contexts: ['editable'],
    title: 'Context menu example',
    onclick: function(event) {
      if (event.isEditable) {
        console.log('This is an editable element');
      }
    }
  }

  // Create a menu item with the specified properties
  var item = menu.createItem(itemProps);
  // Add the menu item to the context menu
  menu.addItem(item);
