    Javascript/jQuery – disable right click

    on Feb 7, 2016

    Right click can be disable by attaching a even listener to contextmenu event. It can be done using jQuery or vanilla Javascript.

    disable right click using jQuery

    <script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
    
    <div id="count1">Hello world</div>
    
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).on("contextmenu", function(e) {
      console.log("right click disabled");
      return false;
    });
    </script>
    refresh done
    try it online

    Here is the log message we can see in console when someone right clicks in the document.

    disable right click using vanilla Javascript

    <div id="count1">Hello world</div>
    
    <script type="text/javascript">
    document.addEventListener("contextmenu", function(e) {
      console.log("right click disabled");
      e.preventDefault();
      return false;
    });
    </script>
    refresh done
    try it online
