no text select

[randybruder]

using a script i found a dynamicdrive.com, i was able to make it so that you couldn't select text on a webpage:

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

does anybody know how to adjust this script so that you still cannot select text, but inside of a input field you may?

thanks alot!!

Actually it only keeps you from selecting with the mouse, and if I turn off JS it doesn't even do that. But if you insist:

<input type="text" onfocus="document.onmousedown=''" onblur="document.onmousedown=disableselect"/>
