good luck though on getting it removed. |
<BODY oncontextmenu="return false;"...> would disable such, but the problem is, there's also View Source in the IE View menu. |
It's sent to you as plaintext. Anyone with half a brain can figure out how to intercept it. |

also if you try and disable right click in firefox/mozilla, the right click menu still comes up over the "you cant save this!" box that people usually try and pop up, because its not dumb like IE...
Anything you view goes to your cache, you cant 'stop' someone downloading it, they already have if theyre looking at it! |

Well, in ASP, one could use the | Code: | | <% Response.Expires = Now + (1/3600) %> |
property, thus the page only spends one second in the cache. Or use metatags to the same effect. However, there is always a way to get at source code of a given page/site; and people one way or another are going to figure out how |

Why does this make IE dumb? I think this makes Firefox dumb. I often replace the context menu with my own information. For example, I made an eBook viewing website where the context menu contained things like "define this word" and "Insert a note here" and stuff like that. IE allows me to do this because I can create my own context menu and display that instead. So why is Firefox "smart" for allowing me to create my own contextmenu, but then displaying its menu on top of mine? What use is there for the oncontextmenu event if you can't prevent the default behavior?
Also the cache is irrelevant. You can view it as it is coming across the socket. All you need is a network sniffing program. |

It's fine that you want your web site to have a certain context menu, but I don't want your web site preventing me from access my browser's normal context menu. You shouldn't have control over my browser. (Same thing goes with automatically resizing windows and such) IE may not be dumb, but Firefox is smarter when it comes to things like this. |
