Use a server-side language.

Pyro is right, server side, but short of that (and it won't stop a determined hacker, just a casual user) you can always code an encryption routine and check against the encrypted value. To make it more difficult (but again not impossible) you can put it into an external JS file, use frames to hide the source, etc.

As is blocking the right click menu. In addition, blocking the right click menu aggrevates users, so don't do it.
