Thread: Saving Background Images In A Table In Firefox

  1. #1
    Ok if you look at this site you will see that picture is behind a transparent GIF in a table as a way to "protect" the picture.

    I see more and more sites that seem to adopt this method of “protecting “their images and all it is just a pain in the ass really. (it not going to stop me from saving it. in fact it makes me want to save it more)

    Anyone know of any good extensions of mozilla firefox (or mozilla) to save backround pictures in tables?

    if you really want it that bad, just View Source.




    edit* here's the relevant portion:
    Code:
    <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" background="http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0298148/16.jpg"><td><img src="http://i.imdb.com/mptv1.gif" border="0" width="450" height="271"></td></tr></table>
    to find the url in the code quickly, I just right-clicked the image, & viewed the properties, noted the width, and searched the source for that number. viola!

    this post is guaranteed 100% parrot-free
