Script to prevent print or disable it
Does anyone knows of any script to disable the browser "Print" . I understand that it does not totally prevent one from printing if they really want to by using the "Print Screen Button" and opening it in a graphics program to print it on their computer.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

You would basically be removing a basic browser option if this were possible, which I do not think it is. Out of curiosity, why do you want to do this?

One of my client wanted this for his site. It's crazy sometimes as he did come across a site that couldn't let him use the browser "print" to print out the info.I have asked him for the link but he couldn't recalled it.
If anyone knows how to do it, please advice. I have searched most cgi-perl sites but could not find it.
Thanks

My guess is the site popped into a new window without the toolbars and right click was disabled.
