Copying Web Page Content - Disable

When browsing a web page a user has the ability to highlight content on
a page (by holding down the left mouse button and dragging the mouse
over the desired content). Is there a way to disable this option? I
assume there isn't but I have to try.

Rubbish. OCR exists, and using images only would not only increase
loading time and bandwidth usage but also reduce usability in other
ways (think e.g. of disabled images for exactly that reason).
(or some other peculiar object)
Which would be? Anything that can be downloaded can be stored.
which is not able to be copied the same was as text. Try to drag and
copy a flash object or a pdf to see what I mean.


Try to make a screenshot of it or just download the .swf file ...

"Could not connect to remote server: http://www.artistscope .com", which
is what everyone has been saying; if you don't want it copied don't put
it on the web.

Hi, I would like an opinion on the following: I have a page which is made up of background-images with transparent linked images in front of it, which on hover show text in CSS popups. Due to appropriate alt text, anyone viewing the page with images turned off, will see the alt text instead, and on hover will see the popups.

I have a site where I want to use the Web form validators in two separate forms on a single page. One form allows existing users to log in while the second one allows new users to register. The problem is that if I use the Web Form validation tags, it treats them all as one form (ie...if someone is trying to use the login form, they get an error saying that they have to enter values in the registration form and vice-versa). Any ideas on...
