It is pueril to attempt to prevent “view source” or “print screen”. Any kid with three hours on computer will find a way to by-pass any code you have planted.
Once you show something on the screen, it is in the public domain and available to all. It may be Copyright, but you cannot even manage that protection: how would you sue someone on the other side of the World, if you don’t even know your “images” have been “stolen” ?
Be reasonnable!

LikeDisliketo disable printing, add a style sheet for print media:
then create a print.css file that reads:
* {display: none;}
That way nothing will be shown to the printer. I know how to get around that, but 99% of the people online don’t.
To not be able to view source? there are scripts that disable it, but all those scripts can also be disabled.
function disableRightClick() {
if (document.all) {
if (event.button == 2) { return false; }
} if (document.layers) {
if (go.which == 3) { return false; }
}
}
But that is kind of lame.
You can do other tricks, like escape all of your characters so they can view the source but it will look like gibberish.
there’s a decent article on it at http://www.felgall.com/htmlt4.htm
