Answer 1

You can disable the selection, and with out selection you do not have copy/paste, however I suggest do that only on some parts of your page because is frustrate for the user.

This is the simple code that you can do that, eg, if you have a div with id="notme", run the disableSelOnThis("notme");

    function disableSelOnThis(IdName) {
        var oElem = document.getElementById(IdName);
        if (oElem)
            disableSelection(oElem); }

    function disableSelection(element) {
        element.onselectstart = function() {
            return false;
        };

        element.unselectable = "on";
        element.style.MozUserSelect = "none";
        element.style.cursor = "default";   
    }  

The code was from : http://ajaxcookbook.org/disable-text-selection/ , but its seams that this site is not longer live.

Of course without javascript enable this is not working and everything ChrisF says still stands.
