Disabling "right click"

Hello Apple geniuses

I am building a website where i post photo and video. To protect my copyright I would like to disable the right click to prevent visitors to copy and paste my work. Does anyone know how to do that?
Thank you

iMac 9.1, Mac OS X (10.6.4), 4GB Ram, 1067MHz DDR3, 2,66GHz IntelCore 2 Duo

Additional information. I found an article relating to this topic. http://javascript.about.com/library/blnoright.htm It said to copy and paste the script in the body tag of your webpage...Ermmm! Can someone explain to me how to do this? There is the script: Don't know any javascript language, so don't know if I am doing the right thing....

Merci à vous deux pour ces quelques lignes en français 😉

The first tip I gave is only for the Photos page,
and each Photos page has to be open in iWeb if you want to use this option in the inspector. Else it's grey.

To make it difficult for visitors to download Quicktime movie files on your site see Jim Scott's post in this topic: restrict quicktime download????

However that will not prevent someone from taking a video screenshot of the movie or use the Activity Window in Safari to find and download the movie file. If you add the movie file via an HTML snippet and iFrame code it will be more difficult to download.

You can add watermarks to photos and movie files making it more difficult to use surreptitiously.

If you don't want people to download your stuff, don't put it on the internet.

Have a look at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2145114

Hi Dave
Just for your information, I was seeking information on this forum, not opinion. Thank you for your concern though.

Hi Fred,

I gave you information. Did you read the other threads I linked to?
If you put stuff on the internet, it can be downloaded -- fact.

OK OK OK...Thank you for proving your fact, I was probably too naive to think that it was possible to do it...nonetheless, I didn't apply the script provided by Wyodor yet as I have another issue with iMovie which i try to get the missing video on Severine and Frederic film....and so far I manage to increase my Hard Drive by 100GB...Just have 20GB left to use...
I have long night and day ahead to learn how to use an apple. My big apology to you if you have taken offence on my remark, you can give your opinion.

inspector > Photos > Photos > Photos sharing > None :

the method is a false security, see my post:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10539208&#10539208

I can get every image in photos page with a recursive loop code..
