Disable the Image Toolbar in IE6
The “Image Toolbar” is an IE6+ specific feature designed to facilitate the handling of images on your site. As a user moves his mouse over an image on your page in IE6, a rectangular toolbar pops up, allowing for the instant saving, printing, and emailing of it. As the publisher, you may wish to disable this feature, so your site’s images are not so readily exposed to manipulation.
There are two ways to disable the Image Toolbar in IE6:
1) Insert the following META tag into the
section of your page. Doing so will disable the toolbar for all images on the page:<META HTTP-EQUIV="imagetoolbar" CONTENT="no">
2) OR, inside the particular image(s) in question, add the one attribute as shown. This affects only the containing image:
<img src="logo.gif" GALLERYIMG="no">
