Right Mouse Button Blocked

This occurs when the web page is coded to block your browser's right click.
Site authors do this to *try* and prevent attempts at copying their site,
mostly. In IE, if you go to View...Source, you can see the code at the top
that causes this behavior. You can get around the issue on the site you
mention by highlighting the text you want to duplicate and then going to
IE's menu bar and click Edit...Copy - then paste into Notepad, Wordpad or
other word processing program.
See, it can be done:

a.. Heavy duty 2.5 HP rated motor
b.. Air delivery: 5.6 SCFM @ 90 PSI; 7.2 SCFM @ 40 PSI
c.. Oil lubricated pump
d.. Thermal overload protection
e.. Dual capacitors for fast, easy starts
f.. Easy-to-read pressure regulator gauge
g.. Clear view oil window for easier maintenance
h.. High impact ABS shroud protects the motor
i.. CSA certified
120V, 60Hz, 3400 RPM; Single stage pump, 120 PSI max; Air outlet:
1/4''-18NPT; Weight: 65 lbs.
 
Because in their HTML in the page they have
*SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"*
*!--
*function click() {
*if (event.button==2) {
*alert('Sorry, the right button has been blocked!');*

If you've highlighted & want to copy then just use CTRL C, it's the
equivalent of the right click & copy.
 
T-H-A-N-K-S !

Hi there,

This isn't a problem - it's done on purpose. the site doens't want people
right-clicking and stealing there info, so they block it.

There are ways round:
1. highlight what you want from the site, and press Control+C (this copies
the stuff)
or
2. go to view>source, and then copy all the html code, and then paste it
into FrontPage or any other web editor...delete the code with the blocker,
and then save page and then you can copy it.

hope that helps.
