Google's indexing and JavaScript to prevent copy/paste

    Hey

    I am facing a small problem that people copy/screenshot my content, and I am planing to prevent doing that by a small code of javascript (a System.setClipboard function)

    but I am afraid that this will effect google caching

    could this effect google from copying my content into the gogle cache?

    anybody tried this before?

    Thanks in advance!

    I think it won't affect google's caching.
    But in fact you can't prevent people from copying your content if they do want to.

    As thinlight said: It won't affect your caching, but it's too basic to avoid content theft...

    you can't avoid content copying... But don't worry about it, we have The Copyright Act of 1976 law that holds on this kind of matter.:)

    You can prevent people copying your picture through javascript but you may face problem. Spiders may have serious problems crawling your site. JavaScript is invisible to all of the search engines.

    There is one method that is by adding
    Javascript to page
    but not
    creating problem to any type of indexing

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var omitformtags=["input", "textarea", "select"]
    omitformtags=omitformtags.join("|")
    function disableselect(e){
    if (omitformtags.indexOf(e.target.tagName.toLowerCase())==-1)
    return false
    }
    function reEnable(){
    return true
    }
    if (typeof document.onselectstart!="undefined")
    document.onselectstart=new Function ("return false")
    else{
    document.onmousedown=disableselect
    document.onmouseup=reEnable
    }
    </script>

    use this Code
