Does anyone know how to insert a script to keep someone from saving images & text?? I sure would welcome any input. Thanks!

That question was asked here a while back and someone posted this script that works great when inserted near the beginning of the auction listing ......

<!-- Begin Description -->
</head><body topmargin="0" leftmargin="10" rightmargin="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="10" ondragstart="return false" onselectstart="return false">

They can still steal it, it is just a little harder to do. With paint shop pro(and I'm sure a lot of other programs) you can save anything that you can see on your monitor with the capture mode.

Nothing is able to be protected completely. If you know how to read HTML code, you can view the source and then find the exact location of that image, assuming you are protecting an image. Nothing that was in the original html page will protect the actual image file from being downloaded.

But all 'right-click' tactics are like locks on doors. If someone really wants inside, there is always a way to BREAK in. The lock keeps the somewhat honest out.

This website has a lot of html coding and it is free to use as long as you leave their url in the code.

Just be careful not to use any java script using "eval" as eBay will not let you use it on their site.

I think the idea is that the seller is able to deter the vast majority of description and image theft. If you own an expensive car there is little you can do to deter a real car theif but an good alarm system will stop most run-of-the-mill thieves.
