oncontextmenu=return false not working

I have

<html>
<head>
<meta...>
</head>

<body oncontextmenu="return false" onselectstart="return false" ondragstart="return false">

....

</body>
</html>

People cannot use RIGHT CLICK to select anything espcially the pictures. I know there are ways to get by to copy the content. But I think it is good enough to stop a lot of general public from copying.

However, as I have developed the site to be more complicate and I found out a few days ago that I can click and select the content. I wonder what other feature I added could disable the "return false".

I did more tests and found out something new.

The <body oncontextmenu"return false"...> works on Apple Safari and Google Chrome. But not IE, Firefox, or Opera.

That <body...> statements used to work on all browsers
a few months ago.

I want to find a way to prevent RIGHT CLICK on my html for all browsers. Any suggestion is appreciated.

There are several ready made JavaScripts that do this. You should be able to find one pretty quickly by googling "javascript no right click"
