prevent text selection

[medmuseum]

could someone give me a script that can prevent text selection from the page ?

I don't want others to copy my data ...

thanx

no you can not prevent that from hapening. One way or the other if some one wants to steal your data it can be done.Its useless to loose your sleep over this issue..:D

I know that I can't totally prevent stealing data , but at least I want to make it harder , so that only few visitors could do that

in addition , I've already seen this script working somewhere

This should do the trick

<script language="JavaScript1.2">
<!-- begin
function disableselect(e){
return false;
}
function reEnable(){
return true;
}
document.onselectstart=new Function ("return false");
if (window.sidebar){
document.onmousedown=disableselect;
document.onclick=reEnable;
}
// end -->
</script>
