Hey David,
Supressing context menues should not be too difficult, every wannabe
webmaster does it in a futile attempt to prevent downloading his
images, just search the web for it.
Supressing selections would be a combination of javascript and some FF-
specific CSS:
public static native void disableSelectionOn(Element element)/*-{
element.onselectstart = function(){return false;}
}-*/;
public static native void _clearAllSelections()/*-{
var sel ;
if (document.selection && document.selection.empty){
document.selection.empty() ;
} else if ($wnd.getSelection) {
sel=$wnd.getSelection();
if(sel && sel.removeAllRanges)
sel.removeAllRanges() ;
}
}-*/;
.noFocus {
-moz-user-focus: ignore;
-moz-user-input: disabled;
-moz-user-select: none;
}
