Stop the popup print/save image thingy in IE?
Is there a webscript for a webpage which Prevents in Internet Explorer that annoying popup thingy whenever you place your mouse over an image?

I would like people who see my site with ie, not to have that popup thingy.
It really destroys the aesthetics.
Thanks.

If you're not opposed to using tables, making the pic a table background would stop the image toolbar appearing.
Yeah I know, tables suck and its a cheap trick... but it works. :lol:

that doesn't come up just hovering any image, it's just if you're viewing an image by itself. (example viewin this page: http://www.filesharingtalk.com/images/left_new.gif)

ok your right - i guess it reacts like that when your working offline on a page.

Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Multimedia -> untick 'enable image toolbar'

uhhhm... yeah, that's exactly how it's done client side, DI. :ermm:

But 15% is hardly going to want to go to everyone's house, break in, fire up the PC and fiddle with the IE settings is he? :lol:

Maybe if he did though, he could sneakily install firefox and hack the icon so it'll look like IE... he'd be doing them a favour really. :sly: :shifty:

if you want to disable it on your site:

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

goes in the <head> section
