how to block image saving I'm a Dreamweaver newbie, trying to learn as I go. On our website, we have
photo images that the provider doesn't want copied (i.e., images are for our
use only). Does Dreamweaver allow for blocking/preventing the saving of images
by website visitors? If so, how? I couldn't find a reference or guide.Thanks -

Re: how to block image saving There's not much you can do except make it difficult for snaggers to copy your
stuff. Here's a little trick to stop drag 'n drop or copy image to disk. Place
an empty AP Div over each image with a Z-index of 1 or higher. This stops
direct copying. You'll have to put a water mark over the image if you want to
stop screen snaps of your images. Remember, all the images on your page are
downloaded to the user's browser cache. They can hunt down the ones they want
if they're tenacious enough. Have a look at

Re: how to block image saving Don't bother - a screen capture defeats it all.

Re: how to block image saving You're absolutely right Murray. Screen capture will foil most image protection
schemes. The only way to stop screen captures is with a watermark. Software
like CyberGallery and ShrinkWrapper place an optional watermark over the image
so you don't have to prepare special images for the web.
A dedicated snagger will probably try to remove or clone over the watermark,
or use your image as is... watermark and all. You can't beat them all. However,
if you make it difficult to grab images, most people won't bother.

They will bother if your "protection" attempts affect the site's
usability. A watermark is the way to go. Anything else (even the
invisble layer on top of the image) is just a waste of time and may
even become an annoyance to regular users.
