Your question doesn't make sense as stated. Disabling right-click doesn't
prevent others from copying work on your site. It DOES p*ss people off,
though, if that is your intention.

I wonder is anyone keeps track of 'most asked questions'...this one has got to be in the top ten.

Why would you want to keep left handed people out of your site?

Why do you think that interfering with someone's hardware will prevent them
from copying your work on your site?

Hi Mike,

You can try this: BUT!
=======================================
This script is *NOT* fool-proof. People can disable JavaScript support in
their browser, use a browser which doesn't support JavaScript, or use a
browser to link directly to the image that you want to protect. Also the
pages and images are normally stored in the user's browser cache (for
viewing later whilst offline) - with a little bit of work, the thief could
find your image in their cache. It also doesn't stop users accessing the
source of your page from the toolbar menus (View | Page Source). You could
attempt to load your page into a window without toolbars - but again this
isn't fool-proof. They can access the page directly, with toolbars, instead
of opening it without them as you intended. There is a tool for Microsoft
Internet Explorer 5 that will encrypt JScript code - but this is only
supported by Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 - and will not allow the scripts
to run on any other browser.

Bearing this in mind, the following script should stop right clicks (and
left button held down, followed by a right click) in both Netscape Navigator
and Microsoft Internet Explorer. It will not stop users who use a Mac -
where the mouse only has one button. Nor does it stop IE users from
rightclick + shift to get the menu.

If this script doesn't do what you require, i.e. protect your images and or
your scripts (and it won't) then don't use it and don't put your
images/scripts
on the net.

If your livelihood relies on people not copying your images - then add
a water mark or "sample" stamp to your images.

Don:

So - given all the 'it won't work if's, why use it at all? The OP would be
better advised devoting that energy into making the page functional and
attractive. Who would want to steal anything there anyhow if that's not the
case (and I'm betting it is not).

Some people, that know this exists, will keep trying to get the secret
answer. They have been stopped, at some time or another, by this very code!
They just want it.
All I did was try to enlighten him as to the drawbacks and then pointed him
in the direction "HE" wanted to go. His quest has been fulfilled though he
is no closer than when he started.
