Alright I'm often coming across things we could all use so just gonna dump them here when I find them with a small description of what it does.

Came across this today, its pretty self explanatory, basically protects all the images on your site from being copied.

</script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="scripts/overlib.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> 
<!--
function protect() 
{	if (event.button==2 || event.button==3)
		{	alert("All images and content of this website are copyright or licensed to\nJoe Soap and Company.");
			return false;
		}
	else
		{	return true;
		}
}
 
function trap() {	
	
	
	if (document.images) {
		for (i=0;i<document.images.length;i++){	
			document.images[i].onmousedown = protect;
		}
	}	
}
 
//-->
</script>

Disabling right click via Javascript is the worst copy protection ever.

Not to mention it's extremely annoying.

if you are really worried about your images being.. "stolen".. try this..

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
   <tr>
     <td background="realimage.jpg" width="300" height="400">
          <img border="0" src="fakeimg.gif" width="300"height="400">
     </td>
   </tr>
</table>

this way if they rightclick on it.. it will save the "fake" image and not the real one.

Will try this one thanks!

The right click is very annoying I must agree. A simple screenshot overcomes all of this but not everyone has the savvy to figure that out

This isn't fool proof though. Someone can simply turn javascript off.

Your browser cache overcomes all off this.

Best way to "protect" photos is to watermark them...

Don't ever "protect" a website with Right Click disable, it's so unprofessional.

Use a library? I write my own!

Let me guess you code in .NET?

I'd rather use the library, why reinvent the wheel?

When you save the web page on local machine, it also saves the associated files (.css, .js, jpg, etc)
