display a message saying that my source is not available. Can you advise,
please? thank you,

Yeah, give up before you even start.
If you don't want it stolen, don't publish it on the Internet, because once
it is displayed on the visitor's screen, it is already stolen

it is not possible to hide your source. disabling the right-click
(assuming the mouse even has a right button) just makes you look like
an idiot.

hhmm. Not that I care. (or know how to do what you have asked (If I did, I
would tell you)) but a thread starting with a question such as this, is
always a good one to follow. I need to read *bitch* posts every
now-and-then from the Pure Bloods. It makes me smile.

<quote from="echoecho.com">Imagine learning the web by viewing source from
other sites, then use that knowledge to hide the codes so others can't do
the same with your own source. Funniest of all - the *no right click* script
itself is 999/1000 times *borrowed* from other peoples coding</quote>

Certainly. DO NOT DO IT.

LOL

Use any version of Microsoft Frontpage to create your site. (This
won't prevent people from viewing your source, but no one will want to
steal it.)

That wasn't a huff.

Basically, yes it can be done, but

1) It often only works in one browser
2) It won't work if JavaScript is disabled
3) It only proves that you don't know what you are doing
4) It can't prevent people from seeing your source code
5) It will annoy your visitors who want to use the context menu for other
reasons, such as bookmarking your site
6) There is nothing new in your source code that we haven't seen/done before
7) Froggie's Law: If you think you have to hide your source, it's a sure bet
you have nothing worth hiding.
