Prevent right-click on images

Is there a way to have the right-click enabled on any of the images in the cart?
I don't want the images be available to be saved.
Something equivelant to: oncontextmenu="return false;" but throughout the entire product lists.

Thanks
Robert E

Re: Prevent right-click on images

There is really no way to stop someone from copying your images. You can make it less convenient for some via right-click disable, at the cost of seriously annoying those who use right-click for their ordinary navigation. Is that worth it?

The only real solution, as mentioned many times before, is to watermark your image files.

Re: Prevent right-click on images

Let me make it clear: The browser MUST download the images to the computer to show them to the user, so the images are actually in the computer already. Now let me know any way you can prevent the user from saving images that are already on his/her computer?

I no longer provide installation support on forum for all my modules. However, if there are real bugs with the modules please feel free to contact me

Thank you, I will have a look at that option when I receive the images CD I bought.
