No Right Click JavaScript - HTML Forums

webmast3r · 10-30-2009, 08:16 PM

Awhile ago, I came across a useful little script that disables the right click context menu of a web page. Its probably the most effective script I found, since most of the others disable the menu from the right-mouse click only. This script blocks all access to the context menu from right-click and keyboard shortcuts. It also manages to do this with a lot less code. Compatible with Safari, FF, and IE but does not run in Opera. Haven't tried GoogleChrome yet either.

Code:

oncontextmenu="return false;"

Simply insert this javascript into the "oncontextmenu" attribute of the body tag

But what is its use? The source can be seen anyways through the menu.

Web is an open place. Disabling right click menu can't do any help otherthan making the website less usable.
