To disable right-click in an iframe, you can use JavaScript to prevent the context menu from showing when the user right-clicks on the iframe element. Here is a step-by-step guide to achieve this:

  1. Add an id attribute to your iframe element in the HTML code:
1
<iframe id="myIframe" src="https://example.com"></iframe>


  1. Add a script tag to your HTML document to include the following JavaScript code:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
<script>
  const iframe = document.getElementById('myIframe');

  iframe.addEventListener('contextmenu', (e) => {
    e.preventDefault();
  });
</script>


  1. Save the changes and test the website to see if the right-click menu is disabled in the iframe.


Please note that disabling right-click in iframes is considered a user-hostile practice and may not be well-received by the website visitors. Consider if there are alternative solutions to achieve your desired outcome without restricting user interactions.
