How do I distinguish between left and right mouse clicks in jQuery?

$('div').bind('click', function(){
    alert('clicked');
});

$('div').bind('rightclick', function(){ 
    alert('right mouse button is pressed');
});

I want to distinguish between right and left clicks like this, but what do I do...

Use event.which for jQuery

$('#element').mousedown(function(event) {
    switch (event.which) {
        case 1:
            alert('Left Mouse button pressed.');
            break;
        case 2:
            alert('Middle Mouse button pressed.');
            break;
        case 3:
            alert('Right Mouse button pressed.');
            break;
        default:
            alert('You have a strange Mouse!');
    }
});

You can do it like this.
