document.getElementById("myBtn").addEventListener("mousedown", function(){ });
What about a right click event ?

Reset to default 9Listen to the contextmenu event.
Just testing the click type using :
alert("You pressed button: " + event.button)
document.body.addEventListener("mousedown", event => {
if (event.button == 0) { // left click for mouse
alert("left click");
} else if (event.button == 1) { // wheel click for mouse
alert("wheel click");
} else if (event.button == 2){ // right click for mouse
alert("right click");
}});
