Intercepting "Save As" / "Save" in IE

Hi,

I've built a client side webpage for our internal users, which when
loaded, generates some HTML within an iFrame. The HTML generated to
the iFrame is then saved as HTML. I know it's useless to disable the
Save As command, but can I at least intercept when they select this
from the menu and display a message?

Thanks

I have the following code which executes successfully to call the browsers "save as" box... //Screensavers if ($FileType == 'scr') { // We'll be outputting a screensaver header('Content-type: application/octet-stream'); // It will be called test.scr header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="test.scr"');

I have a resume in PDF format and I want anyone who LEFT-OR-RIGHT clicks the link to force the file to be saved, and in any event _not_ opened. Since the PDF will be in his cache in any event, I would just as soon place the employer in control of what directory he wishes to save it in, and there are two salient reasons for this: 1. I want him to OWN the document 2. I want him to FIND the document, quickly, on his hard drive In any...

We are a state agency that views protected medical information via our intranet. The screens even have privacy shields. Alarmingly, uses can "Print" and "Save As" which destroys the protection of the health information at the level we want. QUESTION: Can we shut those off?? Any other suggestions?? Paul Sullivan

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
