Mouse right side button

In the Body tag place: oncontextmenu="return false" - eliminates the need for java script. If I turn off java script, I can right-click to my hearts content.

But michael is right. Last count there were 7 or 8 ways to grab images. the one I use is the IE "Save As" which makes a copy of the page and all images into the directory of your choice.

Another popular one is "View Source" to get the url of the images. Anything you view on your PC is stored in the internet temp directory - including the images.

BTW - the following script will kill a disable-right-click script on any given page

javascript:document.body.onmousedown=null;

I have it set up as an href within an anchor. You can put this code in an html page and drag the link to your links bar and use it to disable a no-right-click script on any page

<a href="javascript:document.body.onmousedown=null; void 0;">enable right-click menu</a>

or password protect and let only trusted visitors have a password

but maybe this wont do it in most cases.

It depends on where you place it and how you do it

I've also seen people put a transparent gif over the photo. When you right-click "save as", you get the gif. People aslo embed the photos within Flash. There are dis-assemblers around, but it prevents casual theft. Of course, they could print-screen and copy it into a paint program frm the clipboard and then trim as desired.

Most of the professional sites I've seen use an image that has been saved as lower quality to prevent professional re-use. The often put the watermark on it as well.

Bottom line is that if the pics are available for anyone to view, then anyone can get them. If you just want a select audience to view/download them, use a password protected directory.
