    There is a JavaScript code you can insert at the top your page. It disables right-click functionality. This will prevent visitors from right-clicking on a picture and selecting Save Picture As in Internet Explorer, or Copy Image in Firefox. You can find the code at:

    You should also disable the image toolbar that appears in Internet Explorer. This appears over images and provides options such as printing and saving a photo. Add this tag to your HEAD section:
    <meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />

    These solutions aren't foolproof. If someone has JavaScript disabled, they will be able to right-click and copy parts of the page. And there are other ways to copy content. For example, users can still click and drag an image off the page.

    • Any photo on the web can be pilfered via the MSWindows Print Screen function.
