Image Protection Not Working..

jdearing · July 29th, 2005, 04:34 PM

I have the image protection turned on. In Photopost Admin I have

IMAGE PROTECTION-->OPTIONS --- I have the first two options set to YES.

Use Anti-leeching code?
Use Right-Click Disable JavaScript to try and prevent right-clicking images

Enable on-the-fly image protection
This option uses the watermark.php script to serve images

Right mouse clicking is disabled, but if I use IE and allow the little SAVE IMAGE icon to appear over the image, it will let me save the image.

I've been to www.photopostdev.com and when I do the same on that site, I just download a watermark.php file instead of the image. Is there something else I have to turn on??

If I view the source code of the page on my site, it shows the image being served through the watermark.php file.

Well what your talking about is something entirely different that most things dont prevent thats the microsoft toolbar

You can add this meta tag to your header include template in vb

<meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />

Second thing on image protection if you really want to make a photo unavailable for download you should move the storage path below the webroot in storage options

what are they doing on the photopostdev site to get it to save as just the watermark.php file instead of the image?

As far as I know using the IPS and using watermark.php to serve the files. Really cant answer that since Photopostdev.com is not part of the Photopost site so I dont know what specifically they do
