For the people who do not like the disable-right-mouse-click-script:
I do not like it either, on internet.
I only use it on an Intranet, that I'm developing at the moment.
The users of this intranet are all newbies to computers. The director of the company said that if I did not disable a lot (IE navbar and right-mouseclick) the employees would get confused.
That's why I use it.

I agree mainly Randall.

If they do use it, It just makes me wonder what's there they don't want me to see. So I ALWAYS view the source. LOL

I hate the ani right mouse click code...

I think I have said this before, but when I surf, I open multiple windows, not being able to right click -> Open Link in new window, to be brutally honest 'pisses me off' this code not only makes pages longer to download and annoying, but tacky and unproffesional at best.

I have never seen a decent page that has used that code.

you're right john,

but I found out another way to get the source, even if you use the script above.

try hitting SHIFT+F10 en you get your
'rightmouseclick-menu' in the upper left corner of your screen.

The Shift and the F10 key are not to be disabled as they don't give any output.

But hey, the code above looks great, doesn't it?

If someone uses an offline browser which downloads linked files or knows how to browse their cache files they could still get the code. Also, you could use the "Save target As" feature on a link in the main page.

There IS a way to protect the source of your site. (except your startpage) The way I do it is inspired by the functions on www.dynamicdrive.com

this is how you do it:

On startpage make 'links' to the rest of your site like this:

The JS-function fullwin() looks like this

{
window.open("yourpage.htm","","fullscreen,scrollbars")
}

On 'yourpage.html' you will see only the page and nothing of the browser.
But there's always the rightmouseclick, that can make you see the source.
Simply use this script to disable that:

/*
Disable right mouse click Script
© Dynamic Drive (www.dynamicdrive.com)
For full source code, installation instructions,
100's more DHTML scripts, and Terms Of
Use, visit dynamicdrive.com
This script last updated:99/04/05
*/

if (document.all)
document.body.onmousedown=new Function("if (event.button==2| |event.button==3)alert('The right mouse button has been disabled')")

</script>

Now the visitor of your site MUST use the navigation-functions you created and cannot see anything of the code. But how do you get back in 'normal' mode?
This can be done by using ALT+F4
but easier is putting an image on the page like this:
<img src"utellmeagain" onclick="exit()">

the JS-exit function looks like this:
{
parent.close()
}

Now the user is back on your startpage and can browse to other sites (i.e. [url=http://www.webmaster-forums.com)]www.webmaster-forums.com)[/url]

That's All!

By server side I mean Perl, PHP, ASP etc. The visitor sees the HTML part but not the program.

On the http://tigtag.szptt.net.cn/ site, I clicked in IE 5 "view" > "source" and saw the source. When you right click in IE5 I get a had to favorites box.
