This cannt be done in PHP. You would have to use something like Flash or Java - which is a lot of effort. The best you can do is disable right click using javascript, but that's easy to circumvent. Because everything's displayed client side, then a user could go into their Temporary Internet Files folder and find it in their anyway. Even using Flash or Java, if someone was determined to grab the individual images, then screenshots and an app to rebuild gifs would be easy to do. Unless of course they are full blown Flash ads, which would be harder to 'rip'. Why would a user want to save an advert anyway ? I don't believe I've ever saved an advert graphic - in fact I quite often resort to banner blocking, because some sites in particular go OTT on their use.

A client wants to test market two versions of an advertising but wants to disable the users' ability to copy/save the ads (right click, copy/save). How can this be done in PHP? Thanks! Anthony F.
