Right click deny : is it possible ?

[PhilJ]

Hi,


Very nice script!

A need to a better protection from copying the images : is there a simple way to disable right click when the mouse goes on a photo?

The best thing to me should be to deny right click making this command equivalent to the action of the ESC key :
Right click = ESC => the photo disappears when the visitor right clicks on it.

So is it possible, and in which file?


Thanks a lot,

I don't like the idea behind this. You don't get any better protection of your images if you disable right click. Every picture is still accessible. For example you can simply drag'n'drop the pictures into a new tab and then save them easily. If somebody really wants to copy your images you can't prevent it.

Hi,


Yes, I know that there is no absolute mean to prevent copying a picture, but disabling right click can discourage many users.

About drag'n'drop the picture into a new tab : I used a kind of gallery in which the left click closed the picture too, very efficiently preventing from copy. In Koschtit galleries, the visitors can operate with both right and left click, so the protection is inexistant.

Could you please tell me in which file(s) I could have a look at the code?

Thanks a lot,

You will need to edit "ki_js_view.php". Do the following:

1. Add this code to the "this.constr" - function:

PHP Code:

<?php addEvent("document", "mousedown", "norightclick"); ?>
<?php addEvent("document", "contextmenu", "norightclick"); ?>
<?php addEvent("document", "click", "norightclick"); ?>

2. Add this code to the "this.destr" - function:

PHP Code:

<?php removeEvent("document", "mousedown", "norightclick"); ?>
<?php removeEvent("document", "contextmenu", "norightclick"); ?>
<?php removeEvent("document", "click", "norightclick"); ?>

3. Add this function to the "kiv_module" - class:

PHP Code:

function norightclick(aEvent){
        aEvent = aEvent ? aEvent : window.event;
        if ((aEvent.type && aEvent.type == "contextmenu") || (aEvent.button && aEvent.button == 2) || (aEvent.which && aEvent.which == 3)) {
            kiv.closeImage();
            if(aEvent.preventDefault)aEvent.preventDefault();
            if(aEvent.stopPropagation)aEvent.stopPropagation();
            return false;
        }
    }
