Is there anyway to disable the context menu that pops up when you press and hold an image in Blackberry 10? Im using bbUi.js and was wondering if that is possible.

This thread should help get you in the right direction.  I believe that you're basically capturing the touch event, then preventDefault(); which stops the default behavior of said event from firing.

Im using bbUi.js so I have to load scripts externally. Also, Im using a table with Images and Im not sure exactly how to implement that coding you provided.

<table width="100%">
  <tr>
    <td><img src="images/n1.png" height="266px" width="204px" onclick="blackberry.system.setWallpaper('local:///images/n1.png');"/></td>
    <td><img src="images/n2.png" height="266px" width="204px" onclick="blackberry.system.setWallpaper('local:///images/n2.png');"/></td>
    <td><img src="images/n3.png" height="266px" width="204px" onclick="blackberry.system.setWallpaper('local:///images/n3.png');"/></td>
</tr>
</table>

 Thanks for your help

You have 2 options to prevent it:

window.oncontextmenu = function (evt) {
    evt.preventDefault();
}

OR You will need to include local:///chrome/webworks.js in your app as well as the feature blackberry.ui.contextmenu adn then you can do the following:

blackberry.ui.contextmenu.enabled = false;
