If you post a graphic on a web page, say, one you have paid a lot of money for and don't want people to steal, how do you stop people from being able to right click it and save it?? thanks!

Replies Macropiper Posted at 11:28 am on Jan. 17, 2008 Your only option is to use a watermark of some form, anything else can either be defeated by viewing the source code, disabling javascript, or taking a screenshot. Besides, using scripts to disable right click prevents people from bookmarking your website, as people generally add sites to their bookmarks by right clicking and pressing "Bookmark this page", and it also makes you look like a complete moron. Don't be a moron, don't disable right click. dreamweaver Posted at 9:39 am on Jan. 17, 2008 Hey, I used to do that for photos I took and put on a site. Though I also should have put a watermark on them as well... *shrugs* That was in the past and I didn't know how to do that then. Anyway, in order to disable right click on that page, you need to have the right html code for it. Here's the site I found this one at and here's the code; Code: <script language="JavaScript"> // distributed by http://hypergurl.com <!-- var popup="EDIT THIS PART FOR WHATEVER YOU WANT THE POPUP WINDOW TO SAY"; function noway(go) { if (document.all) { if (event.button == 2) { alert(popup); return false; } } if (document.layers) { if (go.which == 3) { alert(popup); return false; } } } if (document.layers) { document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN); } document.onmousedown=noway; // --> </script> The part I put in bold, is where you can edit the window that pops up when they try to right click on anything on the page. You can put "Right click is disabled! These images are copyrighted 2008" or whatever you wish to put down. Hope this works for you! Good luck. Hillbillydoggy Posted at 1:12 pm on Jan. 15, 2008 hello?? Hillbillydoggy Posted at 1:04 pm on Jan. 15, 2008 So if you took like a smiley face graphic, watermarked your name on it, couldn't someone just take it, and then take it to paint and remove the watermark??? Emma Loves You Loads Posted at 1:02 pm on Jan. 15, 2008 Put faint text under it saying "COPYRIGHT" :D And your name xx DogPile Posted at 12:59 pm on Jan. 15, 2008 Put a water mark on it. Hillbillydoggy Posted at 12:59 pm on Jan. 15, 2008 How do you disable the right click? Ethryx Posted at 12:59 pm on Jan. 15, 2008 Quote: from MushroomSatsujin at 3:58 pm on Jan. 15, 2008 Disable right clicking I wouldnt recommend this. You can just view source or disable javascript to bypass that. Also, you can print screen and use paint or another image editing program to just cut out the image. alycia1022 Posted at 12:59 pm on Jan. 15, 2008 ishotyourband.com email and ask him Hillbillydoggy Posted at 12:58 pm on Jan. 15, 2008 woops, I meant graphic.
