Right now, the contextmenu attribute is not supported by any browser version. According to caniuse.com it doesn't have support for any current browser versions (IE 9, Firefox 4, Safari 5, Chrome 11, Opera 11.1, or any mobile browsers - iOS, Opera, or Android). It is unknown if it will be supported in future versions.

It was discussed in April 2010 regarding adding it to Webkit. But it doesn't look like it's been added to the nightlies yet.
