permission to right-click - 2/18/2002 14:02:58   
How can I deny permission to right-click a graphic to copy it?

There is a javascript here that will do it:

http://javascript.internet.com/page-details/no-right-click.html

Two comments on that page -
1. Read the pop up window that appears, it essentially points out the futility of using this script to deter anyone form taking an image.
2. The page has its right click disabled which mean you cannot use right click to copy the JavaScript itself. You can easily overcome this by using ctrl+c, by viewing the source, by calling up the page from your temprorary internet files or in any of a number of other way.

Which says it all really - to get at this script you must know how to get by it and it is not difficult.

What the popup window does not point out is how ANNOYING this script is. It will also stop people using right click to add your site to their favorites, to open a link in a new window or to go back. Since I use right click for these things all the time if I encounter this script on a page I just leave. The same infomration will invariably be somewhere less irritating.

For information about how o add a watermark to your image see here: http://webdesign.about.com/library/weekly/aa062701b.htm - scroll down the page.

Like Katherine mentioned, if it is on the web, then it is fair game.

Here...

<script language=JavaScript>
<!--


var message="Function Disabled!";
///////////////////////////////////
function clickIE() {if (document.all) {alert(message);return false;}}
function clickNS(e) {if
(document.layers||(document.getElementById&&!document.all)) {
if (e.which==2||e.which==3) {alert(message);return false;}}}
if (document.layers)
{document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);document.onmousedown=clickNS;}
else{document.onmouseup=clickNS;document.oncontextmenu=clickIE;}

document.oncontextmenu=new Function("return false")
// -->
</script>

Place this script in the "head" section of your page. Works like a charm.

I forgot to add that Abbeyvet and Gene are correct; there is no foolproof way to keep your images form being stolen if someone wants them bad enough, but it is a major deterent.

I have a major photo page http://www.yosemitefun.com/tarheel/images/pictures_of_yosemite.htm that I don't want stuff stolen from, and so I put a strongly worded disclaimer on the front, and then use the script, and so far I haven't been aware of any theft... if it isn't easy to just right-click and save, most people move on. But keep in mind, these scripts are a deterrent only!
