css can't do that. you might be able to do something with javascript, but even that isn't going to be a complete solution. mostly it will just annoy visitors

Getting around the javascript couldn't be much more simple since most browsers allow it to be turned off (and for a good reason).
Basicly, there's absolutely no way to prevent people from gaining access to the material you put online, unless you block the adress with a password.
As far as I know (in this case, not too much), all browsers copy the page somewhere to the computer's hard disc when it's being viewed. This makes gaining access to anything that's on the site quite easy. You'll just have to know where your browser puts this and how you can open those files. There's always away.
One thing I don't quite understand is why do people even want these codes. I simply can't figure out one good reason for them...
Don't get me wrong. I understand if, for example, artists don't want their works to be modified and spread without their permition. That I understand and respect. But a risk for that is always there. And not just in the Internet.

often times i find that the people who want to block people from right-clicking to view source or copy/paste or whatever have nothing worth protecting in the first place

Yeah what about I want to send my work (Logo) to a customer to see but I would like to prevent him to take it and use it before givuing me credit of it?
I need to send him my work but not sure if it is safe......
So I am also looking for a block of right_click-save_as function because I would like to puth them on a page for him to watch.

you could always print and mail it, or fax it. you're not going to be able to stop them from saving the image and using it if they want to, but if you actually designed it, then you are protected by copyright and can go after them if they use it in a way that you haven't given them permission to do. you could put a blurb on the html page that shows the logo explaining what they are allowed to do with it.

A few other hints to this one (only works on images):
Resize it so that it's viewable, but not usable.
Add noise or something else, with same resault.
Put a large, transparent text over the picture, saying something like "not to be used".

But basicly, just having some way to prove that you created the original design ought to do the trick anyways. One way could be mailing a copy to yourself before sending it anywhere else. Leaving the envilope sealed, you can proove the time you first had the design at your hand with the stamp on the envilope. (I don't do this, but I've heard that it's being used by some people.)
That would provide some tangible proof of the ownership of the work in case trouble occours.

There's javascript that will do that BUT!

You have to remember that everything you see on the net gets cached into your computer. If someone really wants to steal something from your site, all they have to do is dig it out of their cache.

The only way to make sure someone doesn't copy/steal your stuff is to not put it on the web.

What I do is I put 'SAMPLE' in faded letters over the image I send out. They can still see the logo but they wouldn't want to use it, watermarked so.

there is a code that prevents left clicks

<!-- begin code provided by x_html_codes_x3 -->
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" ondragstart="return false" onselectstart="return false" oncontextmenu="return false">
<!-- end code provided by x_html_codes_x3 -->

Just to make it fun hrrs an add remover

<!--AdRemover-->
<!--Screennaimless code created by x_ad0rkable_x3-->
<!--http://www.xanga.com/x_ad0rkable_x3--></table></td></tr></tr></td></table>
<ilayer name=""><div id="" style="width:1; height:1; BACKGROUND: #; FILTER: alpha(opacity=0); overflow:auto">
<ilayer name=""><div id="" style="width:1; height:1; BACKGROUND: #; FILTER: alpha(opacity=0); overflow:auto">
<!--Finished-->
<!--End Of AdRemover-->

Whats the point in disabling left click.

As it's already been stated, if you wish to view the source (and I agree, most sites that have this annoying JS no click on aren't worth looking at) you can either look at your locally cached version of the page, or use "view --> page source" in your browser toolbar.

if you want to prevent copying and pasting by other people, try this little program that i have written. been toying with the idea for a while but i finally got it done. it's at http://cpdefeater.blogspot.com/

tell me what you think about it =)

u can't stop people copying things, all they need to do is hit the screenshot butten on there keyboard and past it into paint and cut around the image, its not hard!!
