Java and Javascript

+++ A typical piece of code to insert (Cut & Paste this script... this =
information goes
right under the HEAD in the HTML area of your webpage - the message can =
be altered to read whatever you want to say....)
  in a web page to stop right click copying of site graphics is:

<head>

<script language=3D"JavaScript"> <!--
// No rightclick script v.2.5
// (c) 1998 barts1000
// barts1000@aol.com
// Don't delete this header!

var message=3D"Sorry, that function is disabled.\n\nContents & Graphics =
Copyright =A9your name\nOur work is not Public Domain, and should NOT be =
taken from this site."; // Message for the alert box

// Don't edit below!

function click(e) {
if (document.all) {
if (event.button =3D=3D 2) {
alert(message);
return false;
}
}
if (document.layers) {
if (e.which =3D=3D 3) {
alert(message);
return false;
}
}
}
if (document.layers) {
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);
}
document.onmousedown=3Dclick;
// --> </script>
