This would work perfectly if keyboards didn’t have a menu key and users dint know about the shift+f10. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)

Y would you want to make something source safe? and if u did y in dhtml? an activex control/java applet or any commercil plugin (flash, shockwave, etc) would be a better job.
ne way, i've written a program (abit in VB - just a quick personnal prog so i couldn't be bothered with c++) to load the source strait out of the net the same way that ie does.
You could also drag ur images other the address bar in ie!!
Finnaly, all webpages are cashed in your temp internet files (on pc & mac. I havn't used linux long enouth to know where it stores it :( ) so all u'll have to do is open the chased doument off the temp folder and into notepad.
Now in retrospect, was it really worth the hassle of produceing some code (and it looks as if u have put a great deal of time and thought into it) that tries to defy the very nature of the internet? (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
And there is also a little bug in ie that i found my self and thats hitting the right mouse button and enter stright after! hehehe. ur code has soooo many loop holes! (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Hey nice script... but to make it safer do this to :) just have the user press the tab key lol event.button=3 another loophole. press down the left mouse button and then press the right... See what i mean.. Good code :) ~kc~ (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
I agree this script is absolutely useless.
Also, if you know what you are doing, you can use a meta tag to ensure that none of the current batch of silly web browsers will cache your web pages, i.e, they won't save them in the windows "Temporary Internet Files" folders.
Just use " " and the silly browsers won't cache your web documents. BE WARNED that this will not workl with all web browsers, Aol's (Always Off Line?) crappy AOL's proxy servers don't take a blind bit of a documents' HTML content. It ignores it in entirely. Bleeding corporate gits, always trying to manipulate things is aol. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)

hai , your coddings are all simply superb . Fine i have small doubt, can you clear this.
Restrictions should be placed on one web page so that any photo put onto it, is not downloadable. The functions “View Source”, “Save As”, and “Right Click” should all be disabled. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
i wrote this so long ago, i don't even remember what i was doing. i forgot all about it and one day they said i won this thing. yeah, i know it doesn't totally keep people from the source but i just wrote it for a friend that wanted something easy. thanks for all the comments though. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
great code...but it's not foolproof as always....There are many ways of saving pictures. Here are 2 methods: 1) Click View->Source. 2) Find the Image Link. 3) Paste the link in your browser and wait for image to load. Now you can right-click and save.
Another way is that if you have Microsoft Photo Editor Installed, a small toolbar pops up on every image in Internet Explorer that the mouse is over and it contains a Save Icon. Simply click it and choose Filename to save!!! (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
