Disable browser F5 Key

How can we disable browser F5 Key or menu "Refresh" option?

Hi,
I Don't know about disabling REFRESH in the browser but as to disable the F5 key, write this script in the head section :

<script language=javascript>
document.onkeydown = function(){

if(window.event && window.event.keyCode == 116)
        { // Capture and remap F5
    window.event.keyCode = 505;
      }

if(window.event && window.event.keyCode == 505)
        { // New action for F5
    return false;
        // Must return false or the browser will refresh anyway
    }
}

</script>

thanks so much joefawcett,
and arif007khan you are welcome, this is rightclick disabled, but sorry for view>source i didn't find it yet,
I have tried it and it is amasing, I saw it on: http://www.nukecops.com/postlite2727...ightclick.html

It disables rightclick select and dragdrop (click an image drag it onto the desktop or MS word...)

<body oncontextmenu="return false" ondragstart="return false" onselectstart="return false">

Clicking f6 and than f5 is a way to get F5 to work again as user. Anybody has an idea to avoid this?

Just to add something to that f5 thing.
You can also just disable javascipt.
