Disabling the right click and hiding the source code view may be two
entirely separate issues. I Googled disable right click and
encountered three separate blocks of source code, none of which; worked
on my page at http://www.geocities.com/techfiddle//policies.html

I also searched in this group "disable right click" but the entires I
got were very old, probably not effective any longer.

I remember from the past there was very short snippet of code that
worked, but now I can't find it. I don't care so much about hiding the
source code (though that would be cool), as much as protecting my
images.

During the Googling (Ask, actually), there was a software program I
could buy for $40 which accomplishes this:

So do I need to buy something or is there html that will accomplish
this?

Thanks!

But they share some things in common:
1. They don't work.
2. They're pointless.
3. They really don't work.

Which browser are you using? Most modern browsers don't allow the page
to disable basic browser functions like right click.

Any techniques you found never were effective. Any advice you found to
stop wanting to do this is still 100% valid.

It didn't work.

Don't put them on the web.

Or hire a lawyer and enforce your copyright by taking legal action
against people you steal your images.

Anyone who buys that has just wasted $4. It does a good job of making
your site inaccessible, but a poor job of protecting source code.

Nothing you buy can do this. Nothing in HTML can do this.

There are various JavaScript tricks that make it fractionally more
difficult for clueless users to steal your images or code. But that's
the best they can do.

Try: rm -rf /home/techfiddle/public_html

That will make your images safe!

You can't do that with HTML. To be honest I personally hate sites that
disable right-click - there are many things I like to do with context menus
that I don't think website owners should be attempting to block.

You might also have to think about Googles cache, of both pages
and images.

Bush is trying to rm -f /bin/laden.

Will that make his people safe?

You lost me...what is this?

I'm using Mozilla.

No, I distinctly remember that there was something. That worked. I
was surprised none of the three I tried didn't work.

I would be satisified to block the clueless.

Disable image right-click by capturing oncontextmenu.

Bypass by
- disabling JavaScript temporarily
- using a browser that doesn't support oncontextmenu

Javascript is usually used to add functionality to a site, when
javascript is used to disable functionality, it becomes an annoyance.

<script type="text/javascript">
function annoyance1(e)
{
var elm=e.target||e.srcElement;
if(elm.tagName.toLowerCase()=='img')
{
if(e.target)
{
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
}
else if(e.srcElement)
{
e.returnValue=false;
}
alert('WARNING:\n¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ \nWe have determined that right clicking '+
'on images\nmay lead to unnecessary ware on your mouse.\n\nWe wou'+
'ld like to encourage you to save your mouse.\n\nBy avoiding right clic'+
'king images in the future, you may\nprevent the extinction of your m'+
'ouse.\n\nThis message was brought to you by your friendly\nneighbor'+
'hood webmaster.');
}
}
if(window.attachEvent)
{
document.attachEvent('oncontextmenu',annoyance1);
}
else if(window.addEventListener)
{
document.addEventListener('contextmenu',annoyance1 ,null);
}
</script>

Forget about trying to hide your source code. It is a wasted effort.

Protect your images by putting a watermark on them.

You want to hide stuff from the sort that would be unlikely to
steal stuff from you to great effect?
