How can I prevent my image from opening when long click

Question

I have a code like this:

<button onmousedown="alert('Hi!');">Some text</button>

But when I try to long click it (that’s why I put onMouseDownevent), my text is selected instead of only execute my script. How can I prevent my text from being selected when trying to execute onMouseDown event?

There's nothing in the code shown that would cause an image to open when long-clicking (or short-clicking, or any other interaction) the button. The only thing the button might do is submit a form it was a descendant of. Please take the [tour] and read [ask]. — Heretic Monkey, Aug 24 '21 at 17:35
Yeah, all you said is right, but why Stack Overflow in English is bad with the new programmers :( I will go back to es.stackoverflow.com — TechMan Walker, Aug 24 '21 at 18:24

You can use user-select: none property for that . So text is not selected by user
