Enable right click ONLY in an input

I have disabled the right click on the whole page, but I need it to be enabled in a single input to paste text, since javascript does not allow to take the contents of the clipboard.

I have it disabled like this:

     $(document).bind("contextmenu",function(e){
        return false;
     });

And I try to enable the right click on the element "#insertlink" (which is an input) or on "#pegarlink" (which is a div) in the following way:

  $("#pegarlink").bind("contextmenu", function(e){
        return true;
  });

But it does not work for me, probably because the previous rule is more strict, how can I enable the right menu on a single input?

Thanks

You can use the goal of the event that jQuery passes to the function, and thus determine the element on which it has the event has been activated.

$(document).on('contextmenu',function(e){

    if ( e.target.id == 'pegarlink' ) {
        return true;
    }

    return false;
});

Another consideration is that the method .bind() is considered obsolete, it is recommended to use .on() instead.
