secure content?
anyone got any thoughts on securing content displayed in a browser? a client of mine for a side project is requiring such a thing. obviously you can’t disable print screen, but i was thinking of using flash to it. you can make content non-selectable and can disable the print function in the player. not ideal, but might work. doesn’t have to be 100% non-hackable, just not easy for the average user. has to work in most browsers, too.
anyone? anyone?
just found out that flash (even mx) doesn’t support the html image tag, so not sure how to make authoring simple… hmm…

sounds like you’re trying to put a DRM solution in place for a website. tisk, tisk.
I guess a paying client can sometimes trump ideals and principle.
seriously though. if i absolutely had to make the content non-copyable, i’d probably use flash like you’re suggesting.
