Is there a way to prevent "right click" and "view source" option for my web page?

[FreshPrince]

I wrote some beautiful code and I don't want anyone to steal it

I don't think thats possible, if you don't want peps to see the source how will their browser display the page??

 

[FreshPrince]

how about right click? I should be able to prevent that one right?

You can use VBScript to capture right-clicks, but it's pointless. If I really want your page I'll use wget, lynx, etc to download it.

even if you do prevent right clicks, they can still hit ->View->Source on their toolbar so what's the point??

It makes it harder to steal images and stuff if right click is disabled...plus it prevents n00bs from viewing my source code if they didn't know how to get it from the menu. Every little effort counts. Either that or put everything in Flash....virtually impossible to get the source code then

Yea, wouldn't want people to learn would you...

not if all they want to do is steal my idea... I don't really care about my main page and pretty much everything else(they can look at those codes all they want), but this one page contains some good code that just wouldn't be cool if someone went in, copied it, and call it their own...

Well I'm sorry but that's how HTML was designed to work, if you need to protect your precious formatting algorithms you'll have to hide them in server side things like php or somethign using CGI.
