Disabling the right click on my page

[aprilskye]

Does anyone have a script for disabling the right click on my page to protect people from taking code or pictures off my site? Thanks!

There are plenty of previous threads regarding this. You can search for them.

Understand though that disabling right click will NOT protect your code and pictures.

At least once a week, it seems, somebody asks this question. But never have I seen anyone ask how to defeat these 'no right click' scripts. They all figure it out on their own.

The main reason I want to disable a right click on my pages is not so much for source, but to somewhat deter people from stealing my pictures and using them on their websites or using my pictures for their own identity. Ok, it sounds weird, but its happened quite a few times. The source I don't care too much for...its the pictures I worry more about.

It is absolutly impossible to protect you pictures. Anyone with a screen capture program can get them no matter what you try to do to stop it. Also, many image programs are capable of screen capture, I know PSP7 is...

As is Windows. All you need do is press the "Print Screen" button.

No right mouse click



<script language="javascript">
function noRightClick() {
if (event.button==2) {
alert('You can NOT Right-Click on this page -- but you CAN Left-Click.')
}
}
document.onmousedown=noRightClick
</script>

Or this one. http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex9/noright2.htm which only disables it on images. Once again, you aren't going to be protecting them, just delaying people from getting them for about a second...

All anyone has to do is disable JavaScript on IE and none of your JS will work
