| There are two ways
of disabling the new image-viewing/stealing capabilities of
IE6: 1) By adjusting the image tags, and 2) Adding meta tag
information. These instructions are only for those members not
using SiteBuilder on their pages, usually the non-index pages.
SiteBuilder Classic users cannot alter anything in the <HEAD>
section of the page nor can be add any information to the
Insert Image element other than what is present. If using
SiteBuilder on the pages, we must either layer a transparent
gif on the image and/or use a no-right-click
JavaScript.
Here are the image tag
alteration and the meta tag methods courtesy of Dynamic
Drive.
Image Tag
In the image tag, add
galleryimg="no":
<img
src="picture.jpg" width="xxx"
height="xxx" border="0" galleryimg="no">
Meta Tag
In the <HEAD> section of
your page, add the following:
<META
HTTP-EQUIV="imagetoolbar" CONTENT="no">
Well now then, that takes care
of your visitors using IE6. Remember, there is no fool-proof
method of thwarting thieves. If you have a photo or graphic
that you do not want to have lifted, don't put it on the web
or else embed a watermark, visible or invisible, on it. You can use
MS Paint to put a visible text on it or a product like Picture Shark for visible
watermarks, or a product like Paint Shop Pro for either a
visible or invisible watermark.
