Thanks Jason,

I am always ready to be enlightened by ones who know better than me.

As you suggested, I really would love to get a watermark which is invisible with initial viewing but activated once a copying/printing command ( Can be Ctrl+C or Alt+Printscreen) is used.

If you can help it would be delighting.

Thanks,
C

I wish I had a dollar every time I've seen a question like yours, it seems
like a lot of new developers think they need to fundamentally alter the way
the browser works to protect their "content."  The fact is, if you're
putting content on the public web, it can--and will--be downloaded by all of
your visitors.  (they have to download it to display it after all)

You're going the wrong way about protecting your images.  No matter what
Javascript tricks you try to use, all I have to do is disable Javascript.
And you're going to seriously annoy your visitors who are not technically
savvy, whether they have the intention to "steal" your content or not.
Personally I would not come back to a site that assumes I'm a thief.

You might want to look into other methods to protect your content, such as
login authentication and watermarking. PHP can help with these.  But if you
come on this list and demand ridiculous things, don't expect to be taken
seriously.

A better way to ask your original question would have been: "How can PHP
help protect web content?"

Best,
Jason

1. PHP is server side, not client side.
2. You don't have "a working version," my browser is fully functional on
your site.
2. No one is interested in ripping off your Dreamweaver-generated site
anyway.

Best,
Jason
