Disable CTRL + U and right click to become auto redirect
Web developers often want to protect their source code and content from being copied or viewed by visitors. One way to do this is to disable right-clicking and the Ctrl
+U
keyboard shortcut, which can be used to view the source code of a web page.
However, it is important to note that disabling these features does not completely prevent users from viewing or copying your content. Users can still disable JavaScript in their browser or use a third-party tool to view the source code of your page.
Additionally, disabling right-clicking and Ctrl
+U
can make your website more frustrating for users. For example, users may want to right-click to open a link in a new tab or to save an image.
If you are still concerned about protecting your source code and content, you can consider using other methods, such as:
- Use a content delivery network (CDN) to serve your static assets. This will make it more difficult for users to download and copy your files.
- Use a watermarking script to add a watermark to your images. This will make it more difficult for users to use your images without permission.
- Use a copyright protection service to track and monitor the use of your content online. This can help you to identify and take action against users who are using your content without permission.
How to disable right click and Ctrl+U
If you still want to disable right-clicking and Ctrl
+U
on your website, you can do so using JavaScript. The following code will disable right-clicking and Ctrl
+U
on your entire website:
document.oncontextmenu = function() {
return false;
};
document.onkeydown = function(event) {
if (event.keyCode == 85 && event.ctrlKey) {
return false;
}
};
You can also use JavaScript to disable right-clicking and Ctrl
+U
on specific elements on your page. For example, the following code will disable right-clicking and Ctrl
+U
on all images on your page:
var images = document.getElementsByTagName('img');
for (var i = 0; i < images.length; i++) {
images[i].oncontextmenu = function() {
return false;
};
images[i].onkeydown = function(event) {
if (event.keyCode == 85 && event.ctrlKey) {
return false;
}
};
}
How to redirect users when they try to right click or press Ctrl+U
If you want to redirect users to a different page when they try to right click or press Ctrl
+U
, you can use the following code:
document.oncontextmenu = function() {
window.location = 'https://example.com';
};
document.onkeydown = function(event) {
if (event.keyCode == 85 && event.ctrlKey) {
window.location = 'https://example.com';
}
};
