ThumpAZ Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 In the realm of professional photography on the web, I am sure someone has figured this out. I need to find a script that will not allow the user to print the image that appears on the page. I have already instituted the watermarking of images, but that defaces some images and makes them unappealing to visitors. Whether this script will allow the printing of the page and doesn't let the images show up is one way, Or... If it is a page that is only an image and the print function is disabled is another way. Wouldn't it be fun to make it seem like the print was happening, but what came up on the paper was a message stating that they need to contact the photographer for prints. Quote
ThumpAZ Posted January 31, 2004 Author Posted January 31, 2004 Fair enough. Didn't read the forum headings to see this one. Thanks Quote
Deverill Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 One thing you could do is set up a CSS thing (sorry, it's nothing I've created yet) that presents a different look for printed pages. This is what's behind most of the "Format for printer" links on some pages like my bank does. With that you could totally change the whole thing to say a message like you mention. Quote
TCH-Don Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 You can add >IMG{ display: none; } to a file called print.css and use in the header. But it only works reliably in IE Quote
