Default Why not "No Right Click" - 11-26-2004 , 02:14 AM






Disable Right Click Abilities

This option will prevent users from right clicking on the text, graphics and
links. They will be unable to use the context menu for a number of useful
things, such as:

Go Back and Forward
Print
Open Link - Open in New Window
Save Target
Copy Shortcut
Add to Favorites
Refresh
View Source
View Properties

and more, that may or may not be used as often.

The user will also be unable to save graphics by right clicking, and this is
where the problem starts. Some people often assume that there is only one
way to carry out a process. They are also unaware of the consequences of
disabling context menus. They are further unaware that images have already
been downloaded to the hard drive before they are displayed in the browser.
Disabling the Right Click option is only one way to stop people saving your
content; but about a dozen ways to make sure that they don't bother
returning to your site.
