Graphic protection using Tables
Re: Protecting images on websites useing Tables
Hi I’ve being experimenting with tables as a way of protecting images on websites. This consists of creating a table to the same dimensions of the image and setting the image as the table background. Until then I was simply using no gallery command and JavaScript to disable the right click. Has any one else use this method of image protecting and what additional things can be added to improve on it.

It is not possible to protect any images viewable with a standard browser. You must understand how the web works to realise this. Anything viewable in a browser must first be downloaded on to the users computer. These files sit in the users web cache, and are easily accessbile by the user. Alternatively, all you need to do is view source to get the image path.

Just a warning that anything you put on the Internet is not safe, if you don't want other to take it. A thing to note: even if you put something on the Internet, then take it off your site, things like the Google cache may still have the file stored somewhere, and it's likely to be around for a long time, even if you don't know about it!
You want to keep a file secure? Don't post it on the Internet!

Most of the problems you metioned can be dealt with?
Hi
Most of the problems you have mentioned can be easily dealt with; you can prevent a page being loaded into the browsers cache with this Meta Tab, <META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache"> You can disable right click without Java using this html <body oncontextmenu="return false" onselectstart="return false" ondragstart="return false"> And you can make it hard for people to get hold of the link to the image by encrypting the link information. Also the GALLERYING="no"command can be used to disable Microsoft browsers download icons. Regards Raw Computers - Specialists in small business networks (LANS) Raw Computers Kenilworth Ltd

Great... but people can still get the data without any problems at all.

Personally? As long as you have a copyright on the image, I'd consider it almost an honor that someone liked my stuff that much. If you find it elsewhere, and someone's claiming it to be their own, then you can take matters into your own hands at that point. Try doing a google search for "creative commons license" and see if that might help... sometimes all it takes is a little legal blather to deter people, but if they really want it, they WILL get it. Why stress?
