 * Hi,
    I was wondering how to insert <script type=”text/JavaScript”> correctly 
   in wordpress child theme.
 * I was pasting the code into new style.css by using notepad++ and the format looks
   like as below. However, it doesn’t work. Could someone take a look? Thank you
   very much!

    <script type=”text/JavaScript”> //courtesy of BoogieJack.com function killCopy(
   e){ return false } function reEnable(){ return true } document.onselectstart=
   new Function (“return false”) if (window.sidebar){ document.onmousedown=killCopy
   document.onclick=reEnable } </script> */

 * You should be using [wp_enqueue_script()](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script).

 * Thanks, I am fairly new on the code and wordpress. Would you mind explaining 
   more details or just simply rewrite the above code if it is possible? Thanks 
   much!!
