OK, I guess I should have explained my reasoning....btw, I totally agree
with you, but this is different...
I'm putting up a mockup image of a design for a client & we don't want
them to Save it and use it internally instead of hiring us. It's a
one-time thing that we're going to keep up for a week for them to look
at & then take it down immediately. It's not public & I'm not worried
about source being looked at...
Yes, I do realize that they could print screen the page and do something
with it, but I'm not sure that they're smart enough to know how to do
that...

I've seen this before, mainly on Warez sites and such...But, I was
wondering if anyone could help me out in telling me where I could find
some code that prevents right-clicking on a page. Usually, a message
pops up letting the user know that they can't right-click.
If I can't do it for the entire page, I'd like to at least do it for an
image. Suggestions?

What, so it cannot be 'stolen'? How about if I view the source and go
directly to the image URL and get it that way? What if I look in my
cache
for the image? What if I 'print screen'? What if I use any of a hundred
tools to get a screen capture or portion thereof?
Repeated by many folks many time: If you do not want something to be
taken
do not post it on the web in any way, shape, or form.
