How to disable image selection when moving over an image?

José Joye

Hello,

I want to prevent selecting (or having the popup window [the one that allow
printing, saving,...] to appear) an image when we move the cursor over it in
an page shown within a browser.
Is there any parameter we can set in the <img> tag to prevent this?


Thanks,
José

Add the following to the head section of all page with images that you want to block the image
toolbar from appearing:

<meta HTTP-EQUIV="imagetoolbar" CONTENT="no">

No....and there's no 'real' way to stop downloading of images, since they are
downloaded to the user's web cache (temp internet files) and if they know where
to look can gain access the images.
