Please search the forums for previous discussions of similar topics before posting a question about such a much repeated topic.

The short answer to your post though is:

Don't do it to protect your material, it won't. That's what copyright is for. If you want to do it for cosmetic or functionality reasons, be careful as it could mess up other things about your page. Scripts are available in the script library. Go to:

You can't. There are various scripts available that irritate users with annoying popups every time said user tries to right-click, but there's no way to reliably stop users right-clicking. The knowledgeable ones will just laugh off your attempts.

You mean that script's still on DD? I thought it was going to be taken down.

<script language="javascript">
document.oncontextmenu=function() {
return false
}
</script>

What's wrong with the script I put above?

It still doesn't work.

You're telling me a user can't get past that? In fact, a lot of browsers will simply disallow that by default, so the user would never even know it was there.

It doesn't let you right-click in IE or Mozilla
