Re: Output graphic or other download file to client's browser

No real completely effective way of keeping someone from downloading an image. If they _really_ want the image they can take a screenshot then slice the image out. You could always use a *shudder* java applet, but if they're very familiar with a decompiler they can probably rip such a small applet to pieces in no time. In other words, it's next to impossible to keep someone from downloading one of your pictures. The only way to restrict it is to just use the images on pages that only authorized users can see. -- Plutarck Should be working on something... ...but forgot what it was.

I am trying to develop a web site where some files and images are private, I am using session to auth. user. I would like to know how I can send some local files to the client so that others without the access to the web site will not be able to download. How would I stream the local image (jpg) files over to client? I know how to stream it the normal way, just don't know how I can stream it to some and not others. Anyone have suggestions on this one?
